Suddenly afternoons
Seem much longer
As I ponder the reason for these five paper maché walls
Suddenly perfect nails seem quite useless
As I undress for no one but the shower

We wore our love so proud
You wore that smile too loud

Suddenly afternoons make me call out
To those boy scouts
"Be prepared for those sandstorms ans cyclones"
Suddenly I get caught
Hiding in a teacup
You say, "Stand up, and be, the woman I love again"

We wore our love so proud
You wore that smile too loud

A little time, a little time, a little time
To remember the plan
Look straight ahead, straight ahead, straight ahead
Through that faded tin can
A little time, a little time, a little time
A little time...
What was the point my friend
Chicken you run again
Chicken you run

Suddenly all I see
Is your green raincoat
And that sailboat
And your umbrella that both of us hated to use

Suddenly all those love songs don´t seem foolish
And I notice that I´m singing every goddamn word

We wore our love so proud
You wore that smile too loud
