Cage unlocked, we went off half-cocked
And got down on all fours
Busted chain links with animal instincts
We were hard to ignore
Latch a chain to a star you name
For the life you're dreaming of
Hatch a scheme to be born again clean
In the eyes of the one you love
We would nestle, opposing thumbs wrestled
Any warm place was fine
Then nested down in an old river town
New ties did bind
Latch a chain to a star you name
For the life you're dreaming of
Hatch a scheme to be born again clean
In the eyes of the one you love
I can see her now as I saw her then
My dear old fabled love
Framed in tresses, untamed -entangled
Her face forever young
Who can blame a lack of shame
Back when we played at love
Further, we will blunder
Laying out under the salty sky above
(chorus)
I see her now as I saw her then
My dear old fabled love
Framed in tresses, untamed -entangled
Her face forever young
