lyrics

never trust the trains in italy, just a tangled mess of times and tracks. why you gotta be so rude, guy at the window? just trying to make my way to siena. let’s walk the mediterranean sea floor where the sun looks just like the stars. I’ll find that flowing gold azure back door to the city with a palace atop Mars. trying to make my way into your brain, but your skull is awfully hard to crack. as I comb the soft mazy surface I’m just trying to make my way from troy. and as I carry you through the foggy morn’, the sound of your crying travels far. but just when it seems our morale has been torn, I’ll make you warm and we’ll be dreaming of italy again. (s. hudes)
