In the amusement park, we kiss
a movie of love and music
Words are unsweetened and pure
An eyebrow raised
for a moment says it all
A ******* roller skates
between the houses of cards
and sand castles gets priority
from staring drivers
who cut off the pedestrians
and separate Romeo from Juliet
on either side of the street
They are fast on their way
to going mad, thinking
of a secret lover
beneath the scars
of their lies
Song "Once upon a time in the West" (1979, Dire Straits), and the albums "Making Movies" (1980, Dire Straits) and "Love Over Gold" (1984, Dire Straits)
