CIRRUS MINOR
In a churchyard by a river
Lazing in the haze of midday
Laughing in the grasses and the graze
Yellow bird,
you are alone in singing and in flying on
In and in leaving,
willow weeping in the water
Waving to the river daughters
Swaying in the ripples and the reeds
On a trip to, saw a crater in the sun
A thousand miles of moonlight later
THE NILE SONG
I was standing by the Nile
When I saw the lady smile
I would take her out for a while
For a while. Light tears wept like a child
How her golden hair was blowing wild
Then she spread her wings to fly
For to fly. Soaring high above the breezes
Going always where she pleases
She will make it to the island in the sun
I will follw in her shadow
As I watch her from my window
One day I will catch her eye
She is calling from the deep
Summoning my soul to endless sleep
She is bound to drag me down
Drag me down
CRYING SONG
We smile and smile
We smile and smile
Laughter echoes in your eyes
We climb and climb
We climb and climb
Footfall softly in the pines
We cry and cry
We cry and cry
Sadness passes in a while
We role and role
We role and role
Help me role away the stone
UP THE KHYBER
instrumental
GREEN IS THE COLOR
Heavy hung the canopy of blue
Shade my eyes and I can see you
White is the light that shines through
The dress that you wore
She lay in the shadow of the wave
Hazy were the visions of her playing
Sunlight on her eyes
But moonshine beat her blind everytime
Green is the colour of her kind
Quickness of the eye deceives the mind
Many is the bond
Between the hopefull and the damned
CYMBALINE
The path you tread is narrow
And the drop is shear and very high
The ravens all are watching
From a vantage point near by
Apprehension creeping like a tube train up your spine
Will the tightrope reach the end
Will the final couplet rhyme
(standing with a brink in his hand
he's waiting for tonight)
And it's high time
Cymbaline
It's high time
Cymbaline
Please wake me
Butterfly with broken wings is falling by your side
The ravens all are closing in
There's no where you can hide
Your manager and agent are both busy on the phone
Selling colored photographs to magazines back home
And it's high time
Cymbaline
It's high time
Cymbaline
Please wake me
The lines converging where you stand
They must have moved the picture plane
The leaves are heavy around your feet
You hear the thunder of the train
Suddenly it strikes you
that they're moving into range
Doctor Strange is always changing size
And it's high time
Cymbaline
It's high time
Cymbaline
Please wake me And it's high time
Cymbaline
It's high time
Cymbaline
Please wake me

IBIZA BAR
I'm so afraid of mistakes that I made
Taking every time that I wake
I feel like a hard-boiled butter man
So give me a time
When the countries will lie on the storyline
If kind Are days are made since the first page
I've lived every line that you wrote
Take me down, take me down
From the shelf above your head
So give me a time
When the countries will lie on the storyline
If kind And if I live on the shelf like the rest
And if love bleeds like a sad song
Please pick-up your camera and use me again
So give me a time
When the countries will lie on the storyline
If kind
Yea

(SONG NOT PRESENT ON ALBUM VERSION)
SEABIRDS
but i can hear the sound of seabirds in my ear
and i can see you smile
surf comes rushing up the beach
now it will reach the castle wall
and it will fall
catfish dappled silver flashing
Dogfish puffing bubbles in my deep
Surf is high an' the sea is awash
An' a haze of candy floss, glitter and beads
Rock that we sat on and watched in the sun
That was hot to the touch
And the sea was an emerald green
But I can hear the sound of seabirds in my ear
And I can see you smile
But I can hear the sound of seabirds in my ear
And I can see you smile
But I can hear the sound of seabirds in my ear
And I can see you smile
