Lyrics

[00:30.62] The poet's voice lingers on
[00:35.01] His words hang in the air.
[00:41.17] The ground you walk upon
[00:44.95] Might as well not be there.
[00:52.77] Might as well not be there.
[01:01.45] I'll take you through my dreams
[01:06.05] Out into the darkest morning.
[01:13.23] Past the blood filled streams
[01:19.21] Into the garden of Jane Delawney.
[01:24.91] Into her garden now.
[01:39.40] Though the rose is there
[01:44.00] Don't pluck it as you pass.
[01:49.73] For a fire will consume your hair
[01:56.00] And your eyes will turn to glass.
[02:02.25] Your eyes will turn to glass.
[02:08.22] In the willow's shade
[02:15.11] Don't lie to hear it weep.
[02:21.38] For its tears of gold and jade
[02:27.32] Will drown you as you sleep.
[02:33.07] Will you drown now.
[02:53.38] Jane Delawney had her dreams
[02:57.54] That she never did discover.
[03:04.00] For the flow that feeds the stream
[03:10.28] Is the life blood of her lover.
[03:15.92] Is the life blood of her lover.
[03:21.80] And the purifying beam
[03:25.58] Of the sun will shine here never.
[03:31.39] While the spirit of her dream
[03:36.83] In the garden lives forever.
[03:43.51] Lives forever now.
[03:51.22]
