Golden Country Kingdom |
| The hour that the forest puts the lake to bed |
| She rises to the surface, swims through the darkness in my head |
| The crate with next year’s promises arrived in another town |
| And the leaves I can’t remember are slowly turning brown… |
| Far from the skies |
| Away from her eyes |
| The golden country kingdom |
| The rose it swings and dies |
| By the time we all come home the predictable successes |
| Hope to find the courage made of last year’s evening dresses |
| Oh the sparkle and the laughter that echoes round the tables |
| And the trees remember little birds they murdered in the fables… |
| Far from the skies |
| Away from her eyes |
| The golden country kingdom |
| A rose it swings and dies |
| When winter calls the summer liar and freezes up its feet |
| I can’t afford her kisses, I stood in lines I can’t repeat |
| And now the diamond wagons have reached their destination |
| And the piper calls the tunes back from the benches in the station |
| Far from the skies |
| Away from her eyes |
| The golden country kingdom |
| A rose it swings and dies |
| The smoky trails when sky men ride the slashing silver swords |
| And now the mangles of the bride, whitely armoured laws |
| Half-naked trees the last notes fall like coins on plates of grief |
| And to stop this sudden sorrow and to bring me quick relief |
| Far from the skies |
| Away from her eyes |
| The golden country kingdom |
| A rose it swings and dies |
