There’s a letter on the office floor
I’m off to the great kaleidoscope
Just a letter and nothing more
I’m off to the great kaleidoscope

Will you leave me with a kiss
Though i’ve warned you of the mystery
In that grim northern rim

There’s a swallow on your mother’s lawn
I ring her doorbell ’til my finger broke
I asked the swallow where my love has gone
She’s off to the great kaleidoscope

Will my future be revealed
With the turning of a wheel
In that grim northern rim
