Turn of the Century (Rehearsal) |
Realising a form out of stone |
Set hands moving |
Roan shaped his heart |
Thru his working hands |
Work to mould his passion into clay |
Like the sun |
In his room, his lady |
She would dance and sing so completely |
So be still, he now cries |
I have time, oh let clay transform thee so, love |
In the deep cold of night |
Winter calls, he cries, don’t deny me For his lady, deep her illness |
Time has caught her |
And will for all reasons take her |
In the still light of dawn, she dies |
Helpless hands soul revealing |
Like leaves we touch, we learn |
We once knew the story |
As winter calls he will starve |
All but to see the stone be life |
Now Roan no more tears |
Set to work his strength |
So transformed him |
Realising a form out of stone, his work |
So absorbed him |
Could she hear him |
Could she see him |
All aglow was his room bathed in this light |
He would touch her |
He would hold her |
Laughing as they danced |
Highest colours touching others |
Did her eyes at the turn of the century |
Tell me plainly |
How we meet, how we’ll love |
Or let life, so transform me Like leaves we touched, we danced |
We once knew the story |
As autumn called and we both |
Remembered all those many years ago |
I’m sure we know |
Was the sign with a touch |
As I kiss your fingers |
We walk hands in the sun |
Memories when we’re young |
Love lingers so Was it sun thru the haze |
That made all your looks |
Warm as moonlight |
As a pearl, deep your eyes |
Tears have flown away |
All the same light |
Did her eyes at the turn of the century |
Tell me plainly |
When we meet how we’ll look |
As we smile time |
