Speedy
Bear Quartet · Holy Holy [1995]
Sunshine
Dreamt they took a picture
Dreamt you stood beside me
On the jetty
And the trees shook their heads
Slow as the weather
Or maybe slower
Dreamt they took a picture
Dreamt you stood beside me
On the jetty
And the trees shook their heads
Slow as the weather
Or maybe slower
