lyrics
Walk in the dark along a cracked path of roots and moonlight
You tell a story a piano player and her missing key
We rest at the edge of a clearing filled up by our hidden words
That night was carved into the curve of my bones is this happening?
happening?
happening?
I should have been your voice tonight
hear the plaster pound
when the love you gave in the cool of the glade
won’t come round
I should have been your wings tonight
no longer earthbound
when the love you gave in the cool of the glade
won’t come round
Ivory said I seemed to have lost my middle C
She tore up the house and then herself for disturbing peace
Later she sat at her ebony bench with the cushioned top
Unable to play she felt her audience slip away
slip away
slip away
I should have been your voice tonight
hear the plaster pound
when the love you gave in the cool of the glade
won’t come round
I should have been your wings tonight
no longer earthbound
when the love you gave in the cool of the glade
won’t come round
Taking a holiday from your sounds
only mine
Under this bed of gold I will rise
give it time
