Album: Sea Train

Outwear the hills, roll down to where the sea rolls in,
I stood alone, apart on the sand
Down along the riverbank, you came up with waterbuckets
Overflowing in your hand
The dance begins Sunset is done
Some gather wood for the fire
A carpenter hangs rusty tools in a bare tree
Silverfish lie by my feet in the sand as the tide comes in

Sidewalks run blood!
Fear changes hands
A human flood
In the land where the streets are the home of the brave
The white knight, the black sun, the children of shadow,
I hear them outside
As I lean like a fist on the windowsill

Love, I want you near me,
Need you not to leave
I can hear you breathing
The wind is in the trees

The Chalice is held
By a new child
Four rivers spill to the sea
A strange bird alights in the branch of a pear tree

Love, I need you near me,
Want you not to leave
Can you hear me breathing?
The winds are in the tree

Forevermore, forevermore forevermore,
Forevermore, forevermore
[repeat
