Equinox

Lyrics

I met a man on the equinox My heart beating like a hummingbird in a box Bartender, another dark rum on the rocks He laid his fisherman's coat on the ground One kiss and I laid my young body down And only the weight of his world in my thighs Kept me from falling straight into the skies with a Somersault and a sigh Sorry bartender forgive the schmaltz Let an old woman recall an old waltz with a Somersault and a sigh Occasionally I wonder why he went away Just up and left all his Gone here to stay The odd lopsided moon and reluctant sunrise Are sharing a square in the room where I lie Where I gotta get up, with no choice but either a Somersault or a sigh I know it's nobody's fault but mine if I Lost the key to the vault where I keep my Somersaults and my sighs I met a man on the equinox I look forward to these ever after shocks Bartender, another dark rum on the rocks
