I saw you tonight by the light
|
Of the shining black stars that circle my heart
|
I saw you come in, though it was dim
|
I have been listening from the beginning
|
|
When you arrived
|
It was as if we had both died
|
And gone somewhere else
|
You and myself
|
That otherworldly feeling
|
Came over me stealing
|
|
My mind was reeling
|
Blood bleeding
|
Red like my guitar
|
Whoever you are
|
Cold in the night
|
I think you're right
|
To whisper and listen
|
Like flowers glisten
|
In a quiet garden
|
The moon is wizened and it is old
|
As a toad in a Chinese story
|
|
The fallen glory of my ego
|
Is laid at the feet of all our purposes
|
And my purpose is to keep on dreaming
|
I am fishing for wishes that's where you come in
|
Though it was dim when you arrived
|
It was as if we had both died
|
And gone somewhere else
|
You and myself
|
