�The Winged Painter is on uptown� I said
�Will you meet me to go��
Washington Square
I�m racing there
to get you at
Noon,
oh the Nocturne noon�
Isabella on the way there stops me
(I say) I can�t stay today -
I�m off in flight Towards Another Light.
Rest.
Youth.
Washington Square,
I meet you there and we go.

now He�s on the run
He�s on the run
From this walking Greeting Card
and Chloe�s Kiss,
The Wolf Pit,
The Wine Harvest,
and Phileda�s Lesson -
We�re not his possession.
in Winter,
Trampled flowers
in Winter

Lovers,
Circus,
these Garlands -
The Blue Pirouette,
The Marriage,
The Mimosas,
Black Sun Over Paris�
these Garlands -
The Little Swallow,
St. Paul from the window,
from the 1/2 open window.

Eve incurs God�s displeasure.
Passion.
Odysseus and Penelope,
Ulysses and Penelope,
The Festival,
In Hell.

in Winter,
The Winged Painter,
The Winged Painter,
Washington Square -
Let�s go see a Day in May
from The Winged Painter



AmySVP asks: How do you choose the titles for your songs? In your book you were debating on Garlands and you chose Garlands in the end instead of Washington Square - any particular reason why?
TORI: I think that even though Washington Square is a point of place in the song, it didn't put it's arms around the song in a way that Garlands did. If you think of the word garlands as not just a collection of flowers, but a collection of paintings, ideas, and in this case it's a collection of Chagall lithographs.
