lyrics

2). The Apple in None of Our Eyes

She scratches, she heals,
she blisters and peels.
She is our kin,
she's cloaked in our skin.
She whistles and howls like the wind,
she pollinates the coast.
She is a trade-wind moving in from the north.
Star, we'll follow you.
Just start and we'll follow you.

Who is She!??

She laughs, she permits,
she cries and submits.
She is our mother held under another.
She grows, she goes,

She gets old and dies.
She is the apple in none of our eyes.
She takes you by surprise
She waits in a line,

She's awake all hours of a summer night reading by the candle light,
She's carefree and wild,
She's a sight for sorry eyes,
too pathetic to ever get her right,
She's a token of a simple life,
she is who. she is who. she is who.
She is you.
