Twilight in the Garden

Mom : "Oh wow. what a lovely summer's evening. Such a nice breeze."

Dad : "Sure is. Just look at these flowers, they seem to be adapting quite well."

Mom : "Very impressive. Didn't think they'd come right so quickly."

Dad : "Yeah, all they needed was a bit of sun. Hey boy, come over here."

Mom : "Come on boy. Oops." (smiling) "Aw shame, he fell over the hose."

Dad :(smile) "He's just starting to get this whole walk thing down. Come here boy. Come to daddy."

Mom : "Come to mommy. Here, do you want a sweetie?"

Mom : "Come on. Here in my hand. Don't you want it...? Some thing's wrong, dear?"

Dad : "What's the matter? Did he hurt himself?"

Mom : "No, it's... when he reached for the sweet. It's like. Uhm. He was about ten centimeters off when he reached for my hand?!"

Dad : "Surely, he shouldn't be struggling with that sort of coordination anymore."

Mom : (waving) "I Don't think it's coordination, dear. I'm waving my hand right in front of his face. He's not responding!"

Dad : "Let me see. Here boy." (waving). "Look at me. Here, look at my hand boy. Don't you see my hand, boy?"

Mom : "What do you think is wrong? He was seeing fine an hour ago?!"

Dad : "I don't know. I really don't know."

A Song that I like

A million to one outside
Nightblindness
Can't see

Your bright eyes are what
The time isTwenty five past eternity
Hear you listening

To the sirens
Coming closer
Now further away

(Chorus)
What we gonna do
When the money runs out
I wish that there was something left to say
Where we going to find the eyes to see
A brighter day

I'm sick of all the same old answers
Lost chances
Cold storms

Propping mountains up
On matchsticks
Dragging baskets
Full of bones

And honey please don't stop
Your talking
'Cause there's a feeling
Won't leave me alone

(Chorus)
What we gonna do
When the money runs out
I wish that there was something I could say
How we going to find the eyes to see
A brighter day

What we gonna do
When the money runs out
I wish that there was something left to say
How we going to find the eyes to see
A brighter day?

A brighter day
A brighter day
