The Elephant Ride Lyrics

    (difford/tilbrook)

    Today is none of our concern
    That rewarding cigarette
    That burns slowly by the bed
    Fills the room with mystery
    The apple ripens on the tree
    That protected seal of love
    Broken by the flame of fun
    Lying back with exodus
    In the arms of lovers trust

    That romantic dance of light
    From the curtain broken night
    Shadows fall on mystery
    Love has ripened here for me
    Stubbing out the cigarette
    I see the clothes beside the bed
    As the half light of the day
    Pulls the sheet up once again

    As the phone hangs by the cord
    As the streets begin to fill
    There's no distance anymore
    There's no wanting when you will
    Will be sleeping through the day
    As the world around us turns
    As the phone hangs by the cord
    Today is none of our concern
