Grave Secrets


I was sitting in the sun
From early morning till after one,
I was lying in the sun
Wondering if I should tell the truth
About how we have fun.

I was floating on the stream
Watching myself watching my dream,
I was drowning in the river
Promising myself that I would never
Tell a soul
About rock ‘n’ roll
Or the drugs that take you higher.

I saw this girl, she was smoking grass,
Sitting in shorts near the underpass,
She was sitting in the sun,
She was nearly having fun,
But I promised myself that I’d never
Never tell anyone,

And as I was drowning in the river
I didn’t tell a soul
About rock ‘n’ roll
Or the drugs that take you higher.
