Balcony
Dolly Varden

Now there are sisters and there are miracles

There is proof that nothing lasts

There was a cold front, there was a balcony

There are pictures from the past

You were a string-bean, you were a beaten rug

A cigarette in the hand and right through that screen door

There was a concrete face showing

Slides of the Grand Coulee Dam

Can't you smell the ashtrays?

Can't you smell the cheap perfume?

The beers in giant cans, and every Sunday

Before the air-raid bells, your mama's nervous laugh

It is a secret, one I will never tell

It is stuck beneath my tongue

How we were drawn there up to that balcony

As dumb as we were young

Just like a fountain, just like a waterfall

You waited underneath

Don't tell the neighbors for crying out loud

Till the ambulance is on our street

Now there are sisters and there are miracles

There is proof that nothing lasts

There was a cold front, there was a balcony

There are pictures from the past

But not one word now, eyes to the ground

The past has been replaced

No, not one word now, don't make a sound

Never one to complain
