lyrics

Killing time with all my friends
It’s the only way to make amends
For the kind of love
That haunts my years and my days
Even though it’s hard to tell
From the silver inside the wishing well
It’s the kind of love the harvest moon
Will never dispel

And there’s a road that you can find
Through the aching trees
Where magpies and turtledoves
Swim in the skies above
Over the sacred leas our boys are dreaming of
They mime my hymns and psalms
While on the run from Sunday’s song

The village beats to see you again
And fade all your freckles
When the day is done

But, while you were searching for a cause
You told me there’s no heaven
That we can’t atone
For the crowning of thorns
And we’ve a lot to learn
Yet, in the garden, we’ll bind our love
Stillborn:
Like father, like son...

I am a patient soul
Let me lie in your arms
God knows, I’m a fool for love
Let me lie, oh, forever
I’ll always be
Floating in the dark
Just return to me
