Don't let your hair grow too long
Leave your yellow raincoat on
Don't get wet

But don't get warm
Don't change the time on your watch
Always reach, but never touch

Stay a picture on the wall

Don't let your step grow too bold

Don't let your hands go too cold
Don't forget, but don't recall
Keep that distance in your stare

Leave your step up in the air
Always near but never there
And stay a picture on the wall
