Lisa Was

(álbum: Muddy Mississippi Line - 1969)

Lisa was the morning
She was all a heart could hope for
Lisa was the magic of a circus smile
And she knew the secret places
Where the heart sees empty faces
But Lisa was a moment
And she stayed for just a while

Lisa saw the colors
Underneath the city river
She wept for all the gypsy's
Who were put on trial
And when Lisa said she'd love you
You just knew she really loved you
But Lisa was a moment
And she stayed for just a while

And when Lisa said she'd love you
You just knew she really loved you
But Lisa was a moment
And she stayed for just a while

Lisa it's so useless
There are just too many armies
And the wiseman on the corner
Speaks a nursery rhyme
Lisa how I miss you
How much I really miss you
Though you were just a moment
You were such a long, long time

Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
