Mansfield |
| It’s a case I guess of paradise lost |
| Ten years back on the hands of the clock |
| In that little house on Mansfield |
| On your old block |
| Sometimes the magic of the past is all we’ve got |
| Just you and me at a crossroads then |
| Isn’t it funny how we were old friends |
| Accidentally thrown together |
| Did we intend |
| To be the romantic novel you never want to end |
| And it’s the contact of the eye that meets across a crowded room |
| And how I kind of wound up the lyrics to your tune |
| You said, 'Funny but it feels like I’ve known you all my life |
| And how it might feel to kiss you on the mouth tonight |
| In between the Star of David and the California moon |
| The Santa Ana winds blew warm into your room |
| We were crazy, wild and running |
| Blind to the change to come |
| In that little house on Mansfield |
| We’d wake at the break of dawn |
| In an Indian summer gone |
| In the candlelight I can recall |
| Your naked shadow looking ten feet tall |
| Like a wild pony dancing |
| Along the wall |
| Off balance I found love the only place to fall |
| We’d wake at the break of dawn |
| In an Indian summer gone |
