| [02:54.00] |
The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land |
| [02:59.00] |
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky |
| [03:04.09] |
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers |
| [03:08.68] |
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking |
| [03:18.96] |
He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise |
| [03:23.93] |
In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise |
| [03:28.95] |
He's chained forever to a world that's departed |
| [03:33.97] |
It's not enough, it's not enough |
| [04:04.56] |
His blood has frozen & curdled with fright |
| [04:09.54] |
His knees have trembled & given way in the night |
| [04:14.44] |
His hand has weakened at the moment of truth |
| [04:19.59] |
His step has faltered |
| [04:29.92] |
One world, one soul |
| [04:40.02] |
Time pass, the river rolls |
| [05:50.87] |
And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication |
| [05:55.71] |
And silent replies that swirl invitation |
| [06:00.79] |
Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea |
| [06:05.92] |
A grim intimation of what is to be |
| [06:15.86] |
There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night |
| [06:20.96] |
And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight |
| [06:26.00] |
And silence that speaks so much louder than words |
| [06:31.04] |
Of promises broken |
