Across the Tyrrhenian Sea comes drifting a song that none of them have ever known. The golden dream that holds back all the hours for the ladies in their Dionysian rites, blonde heads all garlanded with flowers: wine and love and laughter through the night in constant masque and pageant, constant flight. The ground below them whispers in a murmur of passion which is hotter yet than white. The golden dream, the city of all cities, its towers piercing into the azure sky, whose hand is dealt, regarless of all pity: condemned to martyrdom, but not to die. Two lovers look up from their hidden bower. The wine has stood too long and it turns sour. I see the tall and bending of your streets but now they echo only leather tourist feet and waking, ashen, grey-blue blinding death your sudden winding-sheet. -------------------------------------------------------------- Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Sitting Targets, Slender Threads, Solitude, Something About Ysabels Dance, Still Life, Stranger Still, Summer Song, Summer Song In The Autumn, Sunshine, Tapeworm, The Birds, The Comet The Course The Tail, The Future Now, The Institute Of Mental Health, Burning, The Jargon King, The Lie, The Lie Berninis St Theresa, The Old School Tie, The Spirit, The Tower, The Unconscious Life, This Side Of The Looking Glass, This Side Of The Looking-Glass, Thunder, Time for a Change, Time For A Change Chris Judge Smith, Time Heals, Traintime, Two Or Three Spectres, Viking Chris Judge Smith, Vision, What I Did, Whats It Worth, Whats It Worth, Wilhelmina, Candle, Child, Happy, I Once Wrote Some Poems, Imperial Zeppelin, Re-Awakening, Solitude, Summer Song (In The Autumn), Sunshine, The Birds, Again, Autumn, Been Alone So Long, Dropping The Torch, Just Good Friends, Other Hammill Peter song Lyrics A Louse Is Not A Home Lyrics A Way Out Lyrics Act Five Lyrics Act Four Lyrics Act One Lyrics Act Six Lyrics Act Three Lyrics Act Two Lyrics Again Lyrics Airport Lyrics Alice Letting Go Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Hammond Albert Lyrics Hammond Beres Lyrics Hammond Fred Lyrics Hampton the Hampster Lyrics Hamptons Lyrics Hamptons The Lyrics Hamtaro Lyrics Han van Eijk Lyrics Hancock Herbie Lyrics Hand In Hand For Children Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
