Lyrics

Spinning

Swiftly you stole me away
From the thoughts in my mind
Of numbered days and measured time
Could this be the proof
That loves? just a guess
At what a blur can but suggest
It?s a silent truth
That we can?t define
The forgotten warmth of a sigh
Succumbing to bliss
And blessing the wound
With a kiss

Then everything falls away
Spinning round at last we come
Face to face
Just to be thrown clear

Lonely elation departs
Say when on your mark
At twelve paces we turn
And aim for the heart
But forgetting the duel
Is just inking the cruel
Stamp of our haste
So let the wheel keep on turning
And watch fires burning
We look with our hands
But my fingers are learning
To see beyond shadows
Above where the wind blows
You hair across my face

Then everything falls away
Tumbling out at last we see
The price we paid
Just to be so
Headstrong waiting to die

Then looking up from down below
The sun pulls through and starts to show
In your eyes what frost delayed
Now time begins to thaw
To be swept so strong by fatal loins
But tides do turn, where rivers join
In the dark and light the way
That we once thought was lost

But there?s a chance that we might not
Fade away into the night
Moving on, the day is done
The road is long, so we must run
And find the rest
