Mechanised
No-one's inside
There's no keeper
So your paint in stripes
Flakes softly
To the ground
Send your beam
To float the sea
With your comrades
In the night you're not
So lonesome as the day

We could drive there
Arrive there
Be alive there
But your truck's broke down
You're nowhere bound
Will never leave this town
But if it won't be you
It probably won't be me
We capered, burnt a
Candle to the taper
Tonight we'll swim
In the river
Kiss and shiver
Were we ever inspired
Just for a moment
Or is this our life?
Slackness in
The blackness
If that's the way we are
No tricks, no coins
No stars
We need to stray
And find a gateway
Lifelong
Feeling we're wrong
To still be
Hanging around
Our old hunting ground
We could go far
Thanking our stars
That the viaduct
Broke
Or we'd never have spoken
By now
Can't you see i'm
Trying to tell you
We've paid our dues

Remote star climbs
Upward arc
Part, apart
California 1964
So far

Sticky melons juices flow
Cycle paths broken glass
Where did all our summers go?
Boarded-up bars
Dull neon stars
A logging lorry lost its way
Guided by your sweet allure
Tender tasting wanting more
Only me that knows your there
Don't sit in that empty chair
Where do melted icebergs go?
Barbon-dating beating time
Electric cars
Clashes on Mars
Charm me with your hostess calm
Lonely ripples wash the shore
Lazy on the beat and sigh
Promises on tips of tongues
Make a place that no one knows
Trickle sands between our toe
Unlearn what we think we know
Shield your eyes
Wishful sighs
The yellow sign says follow me

Take your shoes off
Step this way
To the waterfall and back
Catch your breath
Along the way
Watching insects
Inch their way
And when the day
Is done
We'll ride in to
The milky sun
Both of us here
A whim the air is all
Drawing circles
Venture softly
We're there
In a moment
There'll be moments
To share
Looking from your
Dark window
Do you miss the city flow?
Sometimes at night
A swim a whim cath fire
Press your face
Against the glass
Soon a hundred years
Will pass
Open the door
Make up for times missing
Found a need
I never knew
I can't imagine
Passing through
Both of us here
And your unknowing smile
Unrolling unknowning
We're there
In a moment
There'll be moments
To share

Rough riders in button downs
When they smiled it was sincere
And they frowned
Outsider european school
To me that's cool and absolute
Were they closer to the truth?
The concept is so loose
But when I think of them
I think of you
I'm always in the world with you
From a friend to a friend
Look into my camera lens
See how the picture bends
If every moment
That defined our lives
Was signaled with a single harbour light
The colour flurry
Could not hurry
The timelessness I feel
When we're together
No blind to these
Shoddy shoddy times
I just want to linger
In those lights
Cause when I see them
I think of think of you
I'm always in the world with you
From a friend to a friend
Look into my camera lens
See how the picture bends
From a friend to a friend
Does a journey ever end?
And what did we intend?
Are we leaving
Or arriving?
