Emotions you can count on
Abby Walton too

Once played me a song
Called Old Old Fashioned

And it sounds like the soft
Soft static in that song

Like a blue-green dragon
You might disagree with me
About the color
In the morning the sky is grey
It is grey a grey grey sky
I can’t count on the sky
Mother, mother, mother
Mother, mother

Once round and full
