Silver Jet
(专辑: In Violet Light - 2002)
There's a
still in the
night, a
tuneless moonlight Just the
I-need-you-and-here's-whys of snoring Gords and Cheryls There's a
heron outside, in violet light There's an urge to go, a
shadow, a
heightened air of peril Your heart jumps to And my heart jumps too I
think to myself "I don't really know my heart" As you whisper "me too" A
silver jet roars overhead Rocks the
nocturne all everglade and grey sheers A
silver jet, so far off already Fought the
hot spurs off all the
way to Cape Spear It's quiet again, when a
car like Big Ben The
radio dopplering, for all you Gregory Peck fans Let Us Now Praise Famous Men To take some pressure off the
wonderous to fight and Your heart jumps to And my heart jumps too As if the
Wolves of Northhumberland themselves Were rumoured to be en route A
silver jet, way overhead You're an archipelago, a
satellite, a
green star A
silver jet, so far off already With your I-need-you-and-here's-why flying to the
next part Your heart jumps to And my heart jumps too I'm thinking to myself "packing is a
secret art" And as you whisper "me too" A
silver jet roars overhead A
silver jet, flying to the
next part A
silver jet, so far off already A
silver jet, a
satellite, a
green star A
silver jet, way overhead A
silver jet, evergladed grey sheers A
silver jet, so far off already A
silver jet, Clayqout sound to Cape Spear
