| [00:02.12] |
Into this strange elastic world |
| [00:06.56] |
Pontus kindly gave up a pearl |
| [00:11.31] |
Of his eternal stone and mud |
| [00:15.91] |
And ain't she lovely bone and blood |
| [00:20.78] |
Born of the sea |
| [00:25.22] |
|
| [00:25.67] |
A thousand miles away from me |
| [00:30.17] |
A court of angels |
| [00:32.76] |
Wards of the sun |
| [00:34.92] |
A future forming |
| [00:37.12] |
A curse undone |
| [00:39.52] |
|
| [00:44.27] |
Under our softly burning lamps she takes her time |
| [00:53.43] |
Telling stories of our possible lives |
| [00:59.78] |
And love is the ink in the well when her body writes |
| [01:06.33] |
|
| [01:10.75] |
I've been selfish and full of pride |
| [01:15.17] |
And she knows deep down there's a little child |
| [01:19.56] |
But I've got a good side to me as well |
| [01:24.45] |
And it's that she loves in spite of everything else |
| [01:31.06] |
|
| [01:43.66] |
A song in the tree has distracted her mind |
| [01:48.93] |
Some other curious form of life |
| [01:53.17] |
Has made its presence to her known |
| [01:57.69] |
And she coos so gently, soft and low |
| [02:02.69] |
He shining face in a million reflections |
| [02:08.03] |
On tiny raindrops that fall in a veil |
| [02:12.61] |
Over our city like notes from above |
| [02:16.90] |
It overwhelms me I just ain't that tough |
| [02:21.75] |
|
| [02:26.48] |
It's not that the darkness can't touch our lives |
| [02:30.96] |
I know it will in time |
| [02:35.68] |
But she's no ordinary valentine |
| [02:41.93] |
And now when the sun goes down |
| [02:44.81] |
she sheds a darling light |
| [02:48.04] |
|
| [02:52.67] |
I've been selfish and full of pride |
| [02:57.27] |
And she knows deep down there's a little child |
| [03:02.27] |
But I've got a good side to me as well |
| [03:06.68] |
And it's that she loves in spite of everything else |
| [03:18.30] |
|
| [03:20.61] |
