Gypsy Girl

You know the rock down by the water? The one that made us take the dive? No fear, no doubt, no falter Plunging head first into life Well, you know, when you know, when you know When you're young Your skin was smooth and the ground uneven The sun concealing every trait On the rock I kissed your eyebrow With the salt still on your face And we smiled as we dried, we entwined as we watched the tide Oh, I thought... My gypsy girl would settle down And I thought I'd keep her in this promised land I thought My gypsy girl would make a home and find A resting place for her wandering mind Now you say you've lost your grounding And you feel that certain itch Re-tracing every footstep Baby, please don't scratch that stitch You will go even though it won't show what might have been Oh, I thought... My gypsy girl would settle down And I thought I'd keep her in this promised land I thought My gypsy girl would make a home and find A resting place for her wandering mind Let's find the rock down by the water Trace our way back to that place Where I kiss your silly eyebrow And bring the salt out of your face Let us go where we know we can show what will have been I wonder... Where are you now? Can you even tell? Did you heed the call? Did you see it all? Do you even care? My gypsy girl won't settle down I know Forever lost in foreign lands I know My gypsy girl won't make a home or find A resting place for her wandering mind
