Ariadne Says

Ariadne says "Won't you smile for me

Like a postcard of a destination I will never see?

You bind yourself with words written in disappearing ink

But what you wrote upon my heart will always be distinct"

Oh Ariadne standing crying on the shore

Now that we are grown-ups we don't do that anymore

I'm not trying to call you up to any kind of war

I just need to stand you up and point you out the door

Ariadne says "It's a story as old as time

A woman, a promise made in earnest, a situation moving on
