lyrics

The gypsy plays in the street her accordion notes are so sweet
While the bright orange young girls slouch by with their fries from the Mickey D's
Dropping milkshake bright pink at their feet
Talking so fast that there's no time to notice or to eat
And later, she'll stand by the station while they stride by in preoccupation

The seagulls bathing on the Clyde disturb the flat calm
As you stare into the morning the evening has ebbed into the a. m .
And you wonder where the gypsy slept and wonder where your memories laid their head
In a moment of clarity you believe you can see
Their sleepy head in a soft morning bed
