lyrics

The grinning bear danced as he swayed with the bells
that rhythmically ran their course over in swells.
And we laughed with such perilous wonderful feelings, while under our noses our rose they were stealing.
And we sailed out to sea just to watch the sunrise, but its marveling magenta burnt up our blue eyes.
So we cried and we graveled for thousands of days, but we fell off the boat and were swallowed by waves.

But you asked me for more and I said sure, I don't know why you hypnotize me but you do.
So I'll be true, my gypsy love, I am so blue, when I can't be with you.

Forest was lush and its branches so green
so it caught our surprise when it started aflame.
And they cried and they screamed as their flesh fell away,
their bodies turned ash by the end of the day and
onto the land where the sand burned so hot
where there's lizards and gizzards of birds that should not
have been flying so closely engaged with the sun
their shadows just waiting for their souls to be one

But you asked me for more and I said sure, I don't know why you hypnotize me but you do.
So I'll be true, my gypsy love, I am so blue, when I can't be with you.
