Martha she listens
for the ticking of my footsteps
Patiently She sifts the hairy
air that's worn and wood swept
pleasantly She does
as she pleases
she listens for me
<Interlude>
Martha she calls to me from a
feather in the meadow,Fly to me
You can dance and sing and
walk with me
And dreams will fade
and shadows grow in weed
She does as she pleases
she waits there for me
She does as she pleases
her heels rise for me
<Interlude>
My love
she talks to winking windows
as she
murmurs to her feet, thoughtly
She separates in laughter
to my side
caught for me
She does as she pleases
she waits there for me
She does as she pleases
her heels rise for me
<Interlude>
Martha she keeps her heart
in a broken clock
and it's waiting
there for me
She weeds apart
through a token lock
What a great thing to be free
She weeps time, starts unspoken
but when the gate swings
there she'll be
There she'll be
in green sun
on blue earth
under warm running shower
