lyrics

Alexander met a man from Buffalo
he'd jump in his car and to the lake they'd go
the days were hot and the water was cold
swimming naked wasn't the only law they broke

they swim in the Summer, long walks at night
laughter love under starry skies
Alexander was 17 years old.
he liked to hang out with the man from Buffalo

too many people are afraid of love
but the flowing river never stops
who can fathom a man and boy
love is the peace that passeth understanding
