No way through
and no way round the salt rain
rising flood
frail flesh and blood
Wednesday evening
the levee finally gave way
your best friend found you then
Angels sing midnight refrains
saying Judie you've lost your treasure
you'd better start all over again
Hearts and diamonds
No help there at all
Still you smiled and chattered like a child
Silent speaker
why no sign of your fall?
We all missed the sound
of you pounding at your prison wall
Angels sing midnight refrains
saying Judie you've lost your treasure
you'd better start back homeward again
