Like Cockatoos - 2006 Remaster

She walked out of her house
 And looked around
 At all the gardens that looked
 Back at her house
 Like all the faces, that quiz when you smile
 And he was standing
 At the corner
 Where the road turned dark
 A part of shiny wet
 Like blood the rain fell
 Black down on the street
 And kissed his feet she fell
 Her head an inch away from heaven
 And her face pressed tight
 And all around the night sang out like cockatoos
 "There are a thousand things" he said
 "I'll never say those things to you again"
 And turning on his heel
 He left a trace of bubbles
 Bleeding in his stead
 And in her head
 A picture of a boy who left her
 Lonely in the rain
 And all around the night sang out like cockatoos
