June 3rd, San Juan
I see it from the air as clear as a map
Ten past 1
The shadow of my plane on the water
Jungle tree tops below
Follow railroad track
Then a muddy river
Wind direction?
I can see the way the wind is blowing
From the way that smoke is rising from the fires
From the way the clothes are swinging on the lines
The shadow of my plane on the water
I see it from the air as clear as a map
Ten past 1
The shadow of my plane on the water
Jungle tree tops below
Follow railroad track
Then a muddy river
Wind direction?
I can see the way the wind is blowing
From the way that smoke is rising from the fires
From the way the clothes are swinging on the lines
The shadow of my plane on the water
