about
words & music by Rick Sparkes
lyrics
I parked the car down the street from your door,
out the first-floor window, past the field, and the second-hand store.
We said goodbye on the museum lawn
and laid our heads down in the grass of a Cézanne.
As we crossed Maincy Bridge I held your hand,
mailing lost love letters from The House of the Hanged Man.
You say these things come in 3s and 4s,
still-life of you and me haunting the Chateau Noir.
Impressions of us circling weekends in d'Orsay.
And if you'd like to confess all of our sins
to The Boy in the Red Vest, David Berman, and all our friends.
We could retrace all our steps through seasons that never change.
Snow is Falling in Manhattan and summer's buried in Clearlake.
Impressions of us circling weekends in d"Orsay.
Excelsior
