Afternoon Song

(альбом: The Love Of Hopeless Causes - 1993)

Time passes slow fields stretch out across open acres
Time passes slow the giant steps of mankind touch us so little in the great lands

Our little storm whirls away out across calm wide oceans
In this sacred breath, you and I falling for ever and ever and ever

The news peoples' dull voices bring the distant tidings of great disasters, politicians speaking in some solemn tone
The crisis of a different world, the panic of the thousands, the destiny of millions so far away

Time passes slow sunlight sparkles on rippling waters
And the trees they sway I don't believe in the things that I can't see

Our little storm whirls away out across calm wide oceans
In this sacred breath, you and I falling for ever and ever and ever
