I can almost touch the stars
Shining wild and bright.
I could hold a comet's tail
Like a brilliant kite.
Through the back fence by the river,
Over stones to you.
Simple, yes, but never easy,
Over stones for you.
I could chase the sunset down;
Beat it to its rest.
I could steal the highest clouds
And wrap them around your breasts.
Through the back fence by the river,
Over stones to you.
Simple, yes, but never easy,
Over stones for you.
Tonight the constellations whirl;
The moon hangs just above.
All these things don't mean a thing
Because you doubt our love
Through the back fence by the river,
Over stones to you.
Simple, yes, but never easy,
Over stones for you.
