This Lyric is: #013

beside u
copyright 2001 artemis robison


the dis-ease of this trust
is mended by
the silver light of silence
the blue of a boyhood sky
river’s running backward
like a child of a wandering mind
slippery with forgetting
and i’m feeling fine
feeling fine

bring your night out in the daylight
bring your night

for now i walk beside u
for now i walk beside u

can’t kill the mystery
can’t put it to sleep
makes me think i’m crazy to keep
running circles round the silence
trying to raise the dead
can’t overload the current
it’s a strong thread

from one day to another
a life and back again

i study the method of resurrection
state of grace my prize possession
living like lovers do
nothing can harm you
nothing can harm you

in your footsteps orchids blooming
i’m a fool to keep assuming…but

for now i walk beside u
for now i walk beside u

can’t kill the mystery
can’t put it to sleep
it can drive you crazy
it can drive you crazy to keep
running circles round the silence
trying to raise the dead
fingers try to break it
but it’s a strong thread
show me another country
dressed in colors not invented
by an earthbound mind

for now i walk beside u
for now…

the sweetest flowers are late to bloom
snake slides sideways in the sun
slippery with forgetting
feeling fine

just another child asking why
