The Virgin Mary all dressed in blue,
sings "My first lover" for an audience of two.
New York boy all dressed in black,
old leather boots, old soles intact.
Time moves forward,
And time moves back.
Like a mixed up engineer,
On an endless railroad track.
Miles to go,
From me to you.
From a town that gets old,
To a city that's new.
This flame burns brighter,
With every poem read.
This bird flies higher with the song up in her head.
Time moves slow,
And time moves fast.
The future now will soon be past.
