You go down to the creek to cool your eyes I follow down to the creek to warm my mind A stalker of sorts you say you are A stalker of sorts I may be There's pennies in the water, lights in the trees Pennies cast broadside for pilgrims like you and me You taught me the life, you taught me to view The world under a microscope, under my shoe Now the present's drowning consciousness Each moment's flowing clear How beautiful this life is I'm singing, oh Annie And I wanna live inside your prose A reflection in your lenses; the couplet that you chose And if now were then, would we have been? Yeah if now were then, Could I have found you hidin round that cool creek's bend? I like to think, that I woulda coulda been Like a little ole part of your everyday The late night cracklin of your embers Or the chinking of your cabin walls, Your dog-eared page or your favorite refrain And I wanna live inside your prose A reflection in your lenses, the allusion you chose And if now were then, would we have been? Yeah if now were then, would we have been Well now ain't then, yeah now ain't then Yeah now is now, and we are far Oh but annie you're still the ink inside my pen
