I saw you in my backyard
My eyes were fixed on your warm sunny breast
Early as you tugged strings from from the moist tanned ground
I saw you in my back yard
Late signing as you retreated to the trees year-round
Did I hear a lilting whistle near the honeysuckle
I saw you in my backyard
My eyes were fixed on your warm sunny breast
