Sundress

from Tui by James Constable

/

lyrics

Do you see her over there?
Tired eyes and wavy hair
You say you don’t know what I see in her
But you’ve never seen her smile
She’s looking out into the world
Is there any other girl
Who could take a simple thing like this
And make it last for such a while?

She’s who I’m thinking of
For all eternal time
And you should know
I hope the girl in the sundress will never die

A cup of coffee in her hand
Left in the kitchen as I planned
No added sugar could be as sweet as her
Though it sometimes doesn’t show
And every single time she speaks
Her velvet voice makes my knees feel weak
And there no one left around
Just me and her
And it all she needs to know

She’s the girl I’m thinking of
For all eternal time
And you should know
I hope the girl in the sundress will never die

And as the clouds begin to bloom
She will regress into her room
With all the wooden floors and pastel walls
It is such a pretty sight
She puts her cup into the sink
And as she goes I always think
That she walks with all the grace of a ballet dancer
Or a bluebird in full flight

She’s the girl I’m thinking of
For all eternal time
And you should know
I hope the girl in the sundress will never die
