lyrics

Can you catch it there?
The fleeting glance
Envelope it, clasp it tight

Can you catch it there?
Bind it taught & true
Tie it to me, tie it to you

The hay-coloured haze
Of the dolorous weight
Of eternity

Grasping at silver dust
Distilled
In the amber air

Gleaned glittering
Flickering
Shimmering

The dusk woven in &
Around your hair

Will we wander down this way?
Through groves all swept
With the heady perfume of decay

And will this wounded ground replay
The glinting of echoes
Occasionally fluttering by?

Now I hear you calling in the night
In your blindfold that cannot devise
To disguise

Oh, please don't disguise
The loving light in your eyes.
