Night Music

I’m thinking of a night I knew up north:
A thunderstorm had come and groaned and gone.

There was a girl I took down by the river:
We let mosquitoes have our arms for free,

We let each other’s hands go where they would.
I’m thinking of a night I knew up north,

It was the largest night I ever knew
(A thunderstorm had come and groaned and gone)

And water dripped right down from leaves on high.
There was a girl I took down by the river,

A girl I loved, though she is long since gone.
We let mosquitoes have our arms for free,

We saw the river carry branches fast
(We let each other’s hands go where they would)
