fripp - bridges & balloons lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
we sailed away on a winter’s day
with fate as malleable as clay
but ships are fallible, i say
and the nautical, like all things, fades
and i can recall our caravel:
a little wicker beetle sh+ll
with four fine maste and lateen sails
its bearings on cair paravel

[chorus]
o my love
o it was a funny little thing
to be the ones to’ve seen

[verse 2]
the sight of bridges and balloons
makes calm canaries irritable;
they caw and claw all afternoon:
“catenaries and dirigibles
brace and buoy the living+room—
a loom of metal, warp—woof—wimble”
and a thimbles worth of milky moon
can touch hearts larger than a thimble

[chorus]
o my love
o it was a funny little thing
to be the ones to’ve seen
o my love
o it was a funny little thing
it was a funny, funny little thing
