My love she speaks like silence,

Valentines can't buy her.

In the dime stores and bus stations,

Read books, repeat quotations,

She knows there's no success like failure

In ceremonies of the horsemen,

Even the pawn must hold a grudge.

Statues made of match sticks,

My love winks, she does not bother,

She knows too much to argue or to judge.

At my window with a broken wing.
