Neptune |
Years ago I came to you |
down beneath your ripples |
submitting to the mystery |
of life beneath the waves. |
Years I floated near you |
swimming in your subterrain |
rocking in the opium embrace |
of Triton’s tomb. |
Time I lost just fussing over |
every little thing you asked for |
let myself keep fading |
silver fishes through my skin. |
Somewhere I stopped breathing |
but I missed the kiss of air |
cut the waves and left you there |
and ne’er returned again. |
Someday in my castle keep |
where rumors fly and questions creep |
they’ll say to me, what of the lord of the deep? |
I’ll say I knew him once but he was asleep. |
There’s no light where you are, my Neptune |
To the mountains I will fly, away from you |
Free from the waves into new love’s arms |
back to the realm of the sky. |
Years ago I came to you |
in love and doomed to drowning |
beholden to the mystery |
of life beneath the waves |
Years I floated near you |
I will never see again |
how I could tarry in the opium embrace |
of Triton’s tomb |
Time I lost, just fussing over |
every little thing you asked for |
let myself keep fading, |
silver fishes through my skin. |
Somewhere I stopped breathing |
but I missed the kiss of air |
I cut the waves and left you there |
and ne’er returned again. |
Someday in my castle keep |
where rumors fly and questions creep, |
They’ll say to me, what of the lord of the deep? |
I’ll say I knew him once, but he was asleep. |
There’s no light where you are, my Neptune. |
To the mountains I will fly, out of this gloom, |
free from the waves into new love’s arms, |
back to the realm of the sky. |
Years ago I came to you |
in love and doomed by what I knew |
and though I miss the mystery now |
of life beneath the waves |
Thin air’s as sweet as water |
when your body begs to breathe |
and so I leave when I must leave |
don’t weep for love I couldn’t save |
All of us who dare to love are brave! |
There’s no light where you are, my Neptune |
To the mountains I will fly, away from you! |
Free from the waves into new love’s arms |
back where I belong! |
There’s no light where you are, my Neptune! |
To the mountains I will fly, out of this gloom, |
free from the waves into new love’s arms, |
back where I belong! |
Someday they will ask me (going back where I belong) |
and I will say |
Someday they will ask me |
they will say, what of the lord of the deep? |
And I will say, I’ll say I knew him once |
but he was asleep. |
I’ll say I knew him once. |
I’ll say I knew him, I knew him, |
I knew him once… |
