Am but i wonder to who G what it is youre saying today . now im asleep in a car , i mean the world to a potty - mouth girl , a pretty pair of blue - eyed birds . time isnt kind or unkind , you liked to say . but i wonder to who what it is youre saying today . mary anne , do you remember the tree by the river when we were seventeen? dark canyon road , i was coy in the half - moon; happy just to be with you , and you were happy for me .
