[00:00.89] And Hiding Away - The Innocence Mission
[00:18.54] I prize the cloudy, tearing sky
[00:22.66]
[00:23.42] for the thoughts that flap and fly.
[00:26.91] For staying in and reading by.
[00:30.87]
[00:31.96] For sitting under.
[00:33.50]
[00:34.35] I read a book of Madeline
[00:37.50]
[00:39.25] and her friends in two straight lines,
[00:42.30]
[00:42.83] in Paris, in a house with vines
[00:46.33]
[00:47.75] over its old face.
[00:50.37] Far, far is Paris...
[00:52.48]
[00:53.18] and the sky is dark with mystery.
[00:56.40]
[01:14.29] Try, catch the thoughts that flap and fly
[01:18.24]
[01:18.95] in the cloudy, tearing sky,
[01:22.04]
[01:22.58] that touch and stir and won't be tied
[01:26.07]
[01:27.56] and try to speak them.
[01:29.52]
[01:30.14] I think of my old Flower Sky.
[01:33.82]
[01:34.95] Of us, when we thought we were spies.
[01:38.02]
[01:38.55] Of bobbing eggs in Easter dyes.
[01:41.85]
[01:43.40] Of walks in London.
[01:45.42]
[01:45.99] Try, try to hold my love for you,
[01:50.36] it knows no measure.
[01:51.98]
[02:23.98] This is a day for hearing bagpipes
[02:27.93]
[02:28.85] somewhere playing.
[02:29.99]
[02:31.79] This is a day for hearing sarabands
[02:36.06]
[02:36.71] and hiding away.
[02:40.07]
[02:42.70] hiding away
[02:43.98]
[02:46.57] hiding away
[02:48.21]
[02:50.60] hiding away
[02:51.92]
[03:09.54] Sky, I hold my tears if you do.
[03:13.04]
[03:15.46] Starling thoughts, go over me.
