Pirates are sleeping
Pirates are sleeping... In galleon ships that are creeping Towards the dawn and your yawn Sleepy little fella and his drowsy little lady Mutineers of senseless taking Calm your ships Your seas just might be breaking Birds land lightly
Birds land lightly on fresh tombstones, souls still reach through soil When the sun reclaims her seedling, complex clay will boil Melt ye down to whence ye came, muddy waters fill Clay returning to its source, the sculpture learned to kill Cooling-off into the darkness, time the loudest sound The second coming now awaits us… hues of blue and brown Bluest waters, brownest clay, the artist tries again Sculpt a world of beauty once more, just don’t call it man Birds land lightly (the second coming) On fresh stone (now awaits us) Birds land lightly (the second coming) On fresh stone (now awaits us) Bluest waters, brownest clay, the artist tries again Sculpt a world of beauty once more, just don’t call it man Just don’t call it man Just don’t call it… We're on our way home
We’re on our way home We’re on our way home, the love never ends Your body’s my lover, your smile is my friend Fall and I’ll catch you, we can laugh as we lie When we reach for the threshold… We’re home at last Honey we’re home at last… Home is our my love |
