"He sends you a poem and she's lost to you" My translation: The father sends the daughter a poem and yet the daughter is lost to the father. The first "You" is a reference to the daughter and the second "You" is a reference to the father.

In Little Green, there are these lines where the mother tells the father about the child and he responds with a poem:
He went to California Hearing that everything's warmer there So you write him a letter and say, "Her eyes are blue" He sends you a poem and she's lost to you Little Green, he's a non-conformer These are the lyrics as they appear on JM.com. and on JMDL. What does line four mean to you? Are the two "you"s in the line both referring to the mother? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable. Sign up now
