lyrics
Adrift, but a gust
A silent moment’s rust
Trailing past and falling drips
Hope and beauty’s canvas rips
Jewels and velvet walls
Dreams of smiling dolls
Draining away
On such a sunny day
Greens and blues
Paths you choose
Yellows, reds so bright I see
In your heart, but not with me
It’s free for thee, open and true
Green and growing, flowing blue
Awaken a rival glimpse
As she trails her fascination
Down it sinks below
A moment’s lost elation
World fades away
Melting shapes of clay
Gray and lost and flowing
Imagination slowing
How the tides of wonder
Ebb and flow toward death
Brightness smiles at tragedy
Gasping for each breath
And when my eyelid’s heavy
And breadth of vision fades
Dream my hero in colour
As through the dark waters he wades
