I can almost touch the stars
Shining wild and bright
I could hold a comet's tail
Like a brilliant kite

Through the back fence by the river
Over stones to you
Simple, yes, but never easy
Over stones for you

I could chase the sunset down
Beat it to it's rest
I could steal the highest clouds
And wrap them around your breasts
Through the back fence by the river
Over stones to you
Simple, yes, but never easy
Over stones for you

Tonight the constellations whirl
The moon hangs just above
All these things don't mean a thing
Because you doubt our love

Through the back fence by the river
Over stones to you
Simple, yes, but never easy
Over stones for you
