lyrics

I tried the grave, you kept a light in a cave
You were brave, you remained

While you held fast, I burned a bridge to a past
that was pain, I remained
Now we walk around the

Trip- wire tension, unclench hands to hold
We don't let go
There are seeds among the stones
There's a road that takes us home
A way back to you

You turned the page, I mapped the scale of our cage
Tried to reset our range
You glid on ice, I lit a furnace of shock and surprise, realised
Can we talk about the

Mis- steps, missing days that fell to fire
Those smouldering nights
Stumble through a dawn of smoke
Will you still throw me a rope
A way back to you

Fickle things, the doubt we bring with promises of care
Cross-hatched, coy
With broken toys
For someone to repair

Sometime we'll tire, stop by the verge, build a fire
In it's embers we'll dance
and we'll laugh about

Illicit kisses, wandering hearts and eyes
Those off- white lies
There's a mischief in your gaze
And a warmth in your embrace
A way back to you

Precious thing, a gentle swing from dead wood to new grass
Stolen treats, those dogs in heat, these things will come to pass

You down the road, I'll trace your footsteps in spring gold
With wagging tails and tales of fortune to behold
And once again I'll see you with a newborn's eyes
And when the final candle dies I'm at your side

This is a quite outstanding opus magnus of Mr Thelen and his associate musicians. Musical and muscular prowess meet groove and melody. Highly recommended hypnotic stuff! Frank Hadlich
