Once there was a time my body
Young girls on my mind
Out of a tin window I climbed
And from the roof, the world was mine
My long hair hung down loose
My naked skin was white and smooth
But not as thin
A virgin in the wind outside above the valley
Open wide
Mm' mm
Mm' mm
Mm' mm
Mm
I'd walk to the prowl
The cabin clearly my ship now
The branches on the older tree
Lashed back and forth like waves at sea
A moony wind came like a song
The mountain's throat ten miles long
Beneath my feet on tar and sand
The cabin roof so far from land
Mm, mm
Mm, mm
Mm' mm
Mm
My writing fingers stained with ink
My eyes need more to cry than blink
A kid a fool for poetry
A kid who closed her eyes to see
The moody wind met moody me
A king and queen midnight to three
That's I lost the limit of my human form
Except for love
Except for love
Except for love
Except for love
Except for love
Love
Mm, mm
Mm, mm
Mm' mm
Mm
Except for love
Except for love
