[00:23.14] |
i saw the back of the stars |
[00:28.79] |
tremble and fall |
[00:33.75] |
while seahorses played |
[00:39.01] |
on the slope of your breast |
[00:44.67] |
i saw a hundred angels |
[00:50.24] |
rush to the ground |
[00:54.93] |
they were giving you garlands |
[01:00.17] |
and giving you crowns |
[01:05.95] |
the flowers are everywhere |
[01:10.51] |
Christ glorious entwined |
[01:15.91] |
the tip of the moon |
[01:20.80] |
and the sun as it shines |
[01:26.23] |
and the roots as they burrow |
[01:31.53] |
and tunnel through earth |
[01:35.43] |
and the birds as they soar on their wings |
[01:40.74] |
i heard them whisper your name |
[01:47.35] |
and i remember you there |
[01:57.88] |
and the turtle-doves hiding |
[02:02.82] |
as your eyes roared with light |
[02:07.89] |
and i remember your smile |
[02:13.04] |
so wide and so red |
[02:18.62] |
whilst the snowflakes covered |
[02:23.80] |
your hair with their seals |
[02:28.87] |
and i remember our bliss |
[02:34.24] |
as we gazed at the wall |
[02:39.53] |
and i remember you there |
[02:48.91] |
i remember you there |
[02:54.09] |
with your mocking bird hair |
[02:59.00] |
some years ago |
[03:03.91] |
we had sat down and wept |
[03:09.18] |
with the sea in our ears |
[03:14.24] |
and seven cats on our laps |
[03:19.79] |
whilst the books gathered dust |
[03:25.24] |
unread and untrue |
[03:30.25] |
and you flicked through the letters |
[03:35.57] |
i could not bear to read |
