The Jesters Lyrics

What do I get when the jesters are all wet

What do I do when the losses all stack up

What do I say to people I haven't met

The more I say the more they might forget

We started out with burgundy and bread

To picnic under an easy azure sky

And we ended up as lovers in your bed

And the love we had was never left unsaid

I watch as somebody close to me recedes

She waves goodbye but she doesn't understand

What that goodbye gesture means to me

The more the light grows dim the less I see

I rode out of town with my F two hundred and twelve at my side

I was really in a hurry to go home

I was looking for a soft landing baby don't you know

I was looking for a soft landing baby yeah

So what do I get when the jesters are all wet

What do I do when the losses all stack up

What do I say to people I haven't met

The more I say the more they might forget

What do you get when the jesters are all wet
