I'll chase 'em to the bottom Till I've finally caught 'em Dreams fall deep... Where voices come a-chimin' Moanin' and a-rhymin' Warning me, their words are Ringin' and a-whinin' Hear 'em weep... Songs from so deep While I'm sleepin' Seep in.... Sweepin' over me Still the echo's achin' "Leave us not forsaken"
So sad, and so true That even shadows come And hum the requiem...
O waters of the moon Your vapors swirls and swoon Your wake is wide... And sorrow's like an arrow Shootin' straight and narrow Aimin' true, it's sting goes Reachin' to the marrow, Silence cried...
Now songs from so deep, While I'm sleepin', Seep in... Sweepin' over me Still the echo's achin' "Leave us not forsaken"
Love rising from the mists, Promise me this and only this, Holy breath touching me, like a wind song Sweet communion of a kiss Sun sifting through the grey Enter in, reach me with a ray Silently swooping down, just to show me How to give my heart away Once a crystal choir Appeared while I was sleeping And called my name And when they came down nearer Saying, ""Dying is done,"" Then a new song was sung Until somewhere we breathed as one And still I hear their whisper Stars bursting in the sky Hear the sad nova's dying cry Shimmering memory, come and hold me While you show me how to fly Sun sifting through the grey Enter in, reach me with a ray Silently swooping down, just to show me How to give my heart away Lately sparkling hosts Come fill my dreams, descending On fiery beams I've seen 'em come clear down Where our poor bodies lay, Soothe us gently and say, ""Gonna wipe all your teas away."" And still I hear their whisper Love, rising from the mists Promise me this and only this, Holy breath touching me, like a wind song Sweet communion of a kiss
