The sun's coming up
the strangest of mornings
the curtain fails
down
on the longest of nights
the world stretches out
with
innocent glory
a flicker of gold
a future yet untold
So you breathe in the air
you breathe in the silence
you
breathe in the pain
to hide it away
but the radiant dawn fills you
with yearning
as your sad disarray
fills yet another day
And the rivers flow
the rivers run so fast
no chance to float
or disembark
and lovers fly
through the sky so fast
then hurtle
down to the dark
So now that's come
the end of the story
no violins
no one to
tell
you body awaits
but your soul is still searching
the
infinite skies
for a sign to recognise
Songs come and go
whisper and silence
worlds fall
apart
ashes and dust
and love disappears
like mist off the
water
rising above
higher and higher
a flicker of
gold
bursting into life
