[00:22.92] Balancing on the wind
[00:25.80] Leaning on the cliff edge wind in limbo
[00:33.63] He watched sand running through the fingers
[00:36.72] Of his left hand into the palm of his right
[00:55.17] He sees someone walking in a hot dry wasteland
[01:00.60] Young hesitant steps
[01:06.33] Recognised her crooked fring and narrow eyes
[01:11.85] Threadbare summer patterned dirty cotton flowered dress
[01:19.50] Scratched ankles and nail bitten hands
[01:27.90] Wanted to touch her cool brown hair
[01:32.85] But she was gone
[01:43.47] And his old tired face was as still as ever
[01:59.10] An aeroplane hummed high up in the sky
[02:03.54] Way up above the clouds
[02:09.53] A green teapot a pair of boots
[02:12.00] A broken pocket watch and chain
[02:14.10] A born dead baby pig
[02:15.81] Lying pure white Bloodless
[02:17.79] Soft and smooth as a gloved lady's hand
[02:25.47] A spinning wheel a bill hook
[02:27.33] An umbrella empty bottles a tin bath
[02:30.84] A hat stand and a slate grey pill box hat
[02:36.39] Sailed past his grabbing hands
[02:39.09] And were gone Like the swallows
[02:52.29] Stuttered words stuttered words
[02:55.77] Voices asking questions he cannot hear
[02:59.73] Come and find us
[03:02.25] Step back or you'll fall
[03:05.40] But the aeroplane is humming so loud now
[03:33.99] Trying to cling to the summer cotton
[03:36.81] Light threadbare patterned sleeveless
[03:39.60] Flowered dirty carnation sunflower
[03:43.20] Sweatstained primrose threadbare
[03:45.84] Dirty disappearing decaying flowered
[03:48.66] Fading cotton forgotten f*****g summer dress
[03:57.27] But it was gone
[04:15.81] Gone like the swallows
