Wedding Cake Smile

In a sunset mind the oceans shimmer
When the wind blows strong the searchlights flicker
It’s not dark yet but it’s getting dimmer
The lines are drawn and they’re getting thicker

In the tempest of the sun in the heart of summer
Get an inkling sometimes well it’s just a glimmer
Of your wedding cake smile of your late comers
Of the sin within but I’m no sinner

Won’t you come on over to my house for dinner
You may already be a winner
We’ll put a little something in the pot and let it simmer, darling
Come on over to my house for dinner

In the wind and the rain in the deep of winter
The trees come down and they start to splinter
She finds a calm within, well it’s deep within her
Got beginner’s mind but she’s no beginner

I been to Germany I been to Spain
Seen a dirty world that’s only getting grimmer
Stood at the wall and I heard him say
Ich bin ein Berliner

Won’t you come on over to my house for dinner
You may already be a winner
We’ll put a little something in the pot and let it simmer, darling
Come on over to my house for dinner

Gotta sunrise daydream and April showers
We’re spinning round the sun with the rest of the spinners
Want to burrow in your earth and smell your flowers
I’m drowning in your love but I ain’t no swimmer

Won’t you come on over to my house for dinner
You may already be a winner
We’ll put a little something in the pot and let it simmer, darling
Come on over to my house for dinner
