lyrics

Sunlight warms the cold red brick,
Warms the beeswax on the table,
Catches my first breath in the air,
And the pictures of the ancient
Ribbons, a Morris dance,
Gold gorse and broom in bloom.

I sit on the old doorstep,
Watch the roses and potatoes,
A horseshoe above my head,
And the fountain trickling slow
Under the old fig tree,
Nasturtiums and mint leaves.

Remember in the new house,
After tea one summer evening?
We laid a blanket on the lawn
And slept under a starry ceiling.
In the rain at 2am
You carried me back in.

When the buildings are gone and the colours are faded
And the roads only lead to unfamiliar places,
A small box of heirlooms in the upstairs back bedroom...
All of the world that has gone you must let
Finally disappear.
