The Bridges of Madison Where they first met With her blonde hair shifting its way Onto her small white tank-top She was cold Almost shivering at the point Her clothes taking their layers off So the sides of her cheeks Could rest in peace He lent her his jacket His corduroy blue jacket That his father gave him When he was a young child Running down the streets of South Carolina. She was kind to his voice Her southern accent Zipped along the trains That made their way through the quiet town As they spoke to one another He could see their children Running through the backyard As the night chilled On the banks of winter He could see the way Each morning rose And each time it felt like the first For they spoke for hours Until the morning finally rose, once again The Bridges of Madison Where they first met under the white snow.
