|
On the corners of boulevards |
|
I call your name |
|
Now and again they play our tune |
|
In the grip of a tiny hand over a flame |
|
Pale as the phases of the moon ... |
|
In the cafes and shopping malls |
|
I see your faceturn into mist on evening dewbut a book and a photograph just aren't the samethere is a train that's leaving soon... |
|
Budapest by |
|
BlimpOver pillars and palaces |
|
I'll hold your hand |
|
Until the fog is lifted |
|
May be better you hold me close than understand |
|
How far away |
|
I've drifted |
|
In the face of a tragedy too bleak to know |
|
The death of some grand illusion |
|
All the treasure we pilloried, splendour we stole ... |
|
They never told you that in school |

Here's a map and a diagram, a shrivelled page |
|
Ripped from the book of history |
|
See the priceless antiquity frozen in time |

Built on the ashes of the |

Signed in the blood of |
