lyrics

Blind From Birth Girl

In the summertime, in the summertime, at the carnival
Blind from Birth Girl bumps her head on the Tilt-A-Whirl
And the colors flash, just for a moment,
then back again (then black again)
She can hear all the crowds of conversations
Like marbles clicking in a silver bowl
She pours the sounds into her heart, but it’s more than she can hold

In the summertime, in the summertime
She longs

Plane with propellers coming up slow, coming up low
From way across the barley fields
Mama’s watching a government show
With all your favorite songs


Blind from Birth Girl
At the open window with her evening meal
Mama’s watching a government show

In the summertime she longs
And the colors flash…
