Marigolds are very much in love but he doesn't mind Picking up his sister he makes his way into the seas or land All the way she smiles She goes up while he goes down, down Sits on a stick in the river Laughter in his sleep Sister's throwing stones hoping for a hit He doesn't know so then She goes up while he goes down, down Another time, another day A brother's way to leave Another time, another day She'll be selling plastic flowers on a Sunday afternoon Picking up weeds she hasn't got the time to care All can see he's not there She grows up for another man and he's down Another time, another day A brother's way to leave Another time, another day Another time, another day A brother's way to leave
