Analysis of Pebble girl
Well I love you sweet mahogany eyes
Above you in the skies the trees are blowing
In the breeze of angel's wings
Like a little water princess
Well you sit upon an island making castles
Waiting for the moon
Then you say stay in the light now
Cos the darkness makes you frightened
Of ye shaddow
While the stars adore you
And the nighttime turns to sunrise again
While the softness of your eyelids
Unfolds before me
Like pebbles in your hand
