Song for the Julian Calendar

Lyrics

Sun twinkling on the river this evening
 I tasted chocolate on my tongue
 Darkness climbing up the ladders to the sky
 Rung by agonizing rung
 I heard firecrackers popping next door
 Wondered what it was I'd bargained for
 When I laid quiet on the floor
 And you were knocking
 ♪
 Let me be your witness
 Let me walk out on the edge
 The sun refused to shine on my backyard today
 Darkness climbing up the house, coming through the window ledge
 I saw the firecrackers bursting on the sidewalk
 Heard you talking your baby talk
 Saw the bright lights again and I
 Felt the shock when you were knocking
