there's a letter on the office floor
I'm off to the great kaleidoscope
just a letter and nothing more
I'm off to the great kaleidoscope
will you leave me with a kiss
though I've warned you of the mystery
in that grim northern rim
there's a swallow on your mother's lawn

I ring her doorbell til my finger broke
I asked the swallow where my love has gone
she's off to the great kaleidoscope
will my future be revealed
with the turning of a wheel
in that grim northern rim
