Glass Tambourine Lyrics
With my little blue beret
And my rotten schoolboy face
Kept your sandals and secrets safe
In the box by the sea
In the box by the sea
I was a movie star
Back in the big big year
She was choir girl from Nice
And even back then I knew
Your angel pear oil sweet perfume
Would linger with the years
And all the details
Like the time you thought
You had to kiss that baby
And cross the tides with Bernice
Then there's the time you thought
You saw an angel's face
Inside the glass tambourine
I was a juju star
Back in the Dairo years
She was the dove of flower city
She was the crack up girl
Her pastry dress and cow hair curls
A perfect origami moon cradling the sea
Like the time you thought
You had to kiss that baby
And cross the tides with Bernice
Then there's the time you thought
You saw an angel's face
Inside the glass tambourine
And my rotten schoolboy face
Kept your sandals and secrets safe
In the box by the sea
In the box by the sea
Back in the big big year
She was choir girl from Nice
And even back then I knew
Your angel pear oil sweet perfume
Would linger with the years
And all the details
You had to kiss that baby
And cross the tides with Bernice
Then there's the time you thought
You saw an angel's face
Inside the glass tambourine
Back in the Dairo years
She was the dove of flower city
She was the crack up girl
Her pastry dress and cow hair curls
A perfect origami moon cradling the sea
You had to kiss that baby
And cross the tides with Bernice
Then there's the time you thought
You saw an angel's face
Inside the glass tambourine
