| The traffic lights they turn blue tomorrow And shine their emptiness down on my bed The tiny island sags downstream 'Cause the life that they lived is dead And the wind screams Mary Will the wind ever remember The names it has blown in the past And with this crutch, its old age, and its wisdom It whispers "No, this will be the last" And the wind cries Mary
