Young beauty passing by gives a wink and a smile to the camera
An irresistible high flyer spells the mirage of the invitation to a dream
The reminder of the passing of time and all the beautiful flowers
But the Garden of Eden is at the very end of the road
And my hand is already touching that burning handle
At the gates stand two menacing Cherubs, holding long scimitars
