lyrics

she lived in the cool hippity-hop part of town
she bought a used bike and rode it around
surrounded by trees planted in orderly rows
everyone who came here felt they’d been here before

she turned pebbles into diamonds
and shoes into mirrors
glass into water
recovering tears
pebbles into diamonds
and shoes into mirrors
glass into water
recovering tears

she longed to understand the crossover between inside and outside she met a man who mused
I know what you’re going through
‘cause you and I are a lot alike
tell me were your people pioneers of the written word
writing ladies books with soft paper covers
She smiled and said no matter the story
hearts were involved with others

she turned pebbles into diamonds
and shoes into mirrors
glass into water
recovering tears
pebbles into diamonds
and shoes into mirrors
glass into water
recovering tears

she stood up to the true blue test of love
remembering the now and forgetting the past from above
floating around in the tops of the trees
lighting back down to be

she bought a used bike and rode it around
