Stanley & Ryan Gebhardt - Jara

Jara remembers how it once was,
She'd watch the tide rise and fall
Though never one for specifics
This was too easy to recollect
That time before, they met

She was a day over twenty
When they came with all the cement
And they said it was good for the city
To keep the buildings intact
What will she watch in the afternoon?

A shame, isn't it a shame?
My boat sits quiet and still
That's what she had heard
From her stoop beside the canal

They bickered on for hours
Of culture that was lost
Though had they not seen the same thing
They would both bare the cost
Nothing to watch in the afternoon
What would they watch in the afternoon?
