When they said that you were beautiful
  
I said it there and then
  
I laid aside all resistance
  
Forgot to say amen
  
And when you raised your hands to me
  
A glow therein I saw
  
A baby of the morning
         
Was sleeping
         
Nature's law

                                          
And it begins to seem like summer's almost gone
                                                     
Like the wind that blow the leaves out on the lawn

  
I determined that I loved you
    
You determined I am he
    
Determined both togethe
    
We meet our company
         
And the feathers of the wild dove
   
Floating to the ground
   
Gliding through the branches
   
Spinning slowly round

                                   
As we wait in the mountains for the song
                                   
That revives what's been between us all along

                   
In Cannes there was absurdity
    
In Nice there was the shore
    
In Monaco there were casinos
    
In Asia there was war
    
And the pipers were American
    
The peaches fresh with cream
    
People with vibrations
          
Just wild robots by some stream


                                    
And now we grasp imaginary straws
                                          
And shuffle through the sea with bright new claws

            
If what we know can save us
      
Then it's time to make the try
             
Every time they try to make us
                  
Servants of some lie
      
The children born of bodies
     
In bold with pattern scheme
         
It's a funny, funny world you live in
           
Til you learn that it's a dream

                                
Sea serpents are rockage made of clay
                                    
Explaining how we were yesterday

         
Still I said that you were beautiful
    
I said it there and then
    
I laid aside resistance
    
Forgot to say amen
     
And when you raised your hands to me
    
A glow therein I see
      
The childhood of that beauty
        
Which belongs to you and me

                                  
And I realise that summer is never gone
                                              
Like the wind that blow the leaves out on the lawn
            
Out on the lawn
            
Out on the lawn
          
On the lawn
