Now's the Only Time I Know

Dark brown hair and eyelash

Reappear in a flash

Now's the only time I know

Early morning's greatest deed

What's forsaken, I do not need

There is water, there is snow

Settling down door and room

Keep it tidy, keep it like a home

Now's the only time I know

Come here, sparrow

Watch my hand

Black and blue seeds

That is what my hand can

Now's the only time I know

Do my hair, paint eyelash

Reappear in a flash

There is more I'd like to know

Nine-fifteen, then I'm done

Quiet front seat, then drive around

Through the water, through the snow
