Out on the tar plains the glides are moving
all looking for a new place to drive
you sit beside me so newly charming
sweating dewdrops glisten freshing your side
The sun slips down bedding heavy blind
the front of your dress all shadowy lined
and the drowning engine throbs in time
with your beating heart
Way down the lane away living for another day
the aphids swarm up in the drifting haze
swim seagull in the empty sky on towards that western isle
my envied lady holds you fast in her gaze
The sun slips down bedding heavy blind
the front of your dress all shadowy lined
and the drowning engine throbs in time
with your beating heart
Sing Blue Silver
And watch as lovers part I feel you smiling
what glass splinters lie so deep in your mind
to tear out from your eyes
with a word to stiffen brooding lies
but I'll only watch you leave me further behind
The sun slips down bedding heavy blind
the front of your dress all shadowy lined
and the drowning engine throbs in time
with your beating heart
