lyrics

the road to the next time
like a child trying to climb
into the well of knowledge of the world

the grove where lovers lie
underneath an apple tree
like a bed of thorns, like a gate or door

we kissed.. in the rain
water streaming down, water streaming down our face
we stood.. in that dark street
holding on to space, holding on to fate

a way into another world
like a picture on the wall
like a window in a mirror

a place where every child hopes to fall
into a state of grace
..like a house with secret rooms

we kissed.. in the rain
water streaming down, water streaming down our face
we stood.. in that dark street
holding on to space, holding on to fate

a hope beyond the garden wall
danger lerks and laughter calls,
.. like roses and thorns

a child climbing an apple tree
just to taste the fruit
of the knowledge.. of the world

we kissed.. in the rain
water streaming down, water streaming down our face
we stood.. in that dark street
holding on to space, holding on to fate
