n°15 wide lovely eyes

Your dress sides with your wide lovely strides
And all along the street lately the stories are bound
They've dismantled the fun fair and they've shut down the rides
They've hung the mermaids from the streetlights by their hair.

And with wide lovely eyes you wave at the sky
And near the high window watching the ride
The waves of blue and the waves of love
You wave and say goodbye.

The nights expands
I am expanding
I watch your hands like butterflies landing.

Nick Cave
