Late November
(专辑: The North Star Grassman And The Ravens - 1971)
The
wine it was drunk, the
ship it was sunk The
shot it was dead, all the
sorrows were drowned The
birds they were clouds, the
brides and the
shrouds And as we drew south the
mist it came down The
wooded ravine to the
wandering stream The
serpent he moved, but no-one would say The
depths of the
waters, the
bridge which distraught us And brought to me thoughts of the
ill-fated day The
temples were filled with the
strangest of creatures One played it by ear on the
banks of the
sea That one was found but the
others they went under Oh the
tears which are shed, they won't come from me The
methods of madness, the
pathos and the
sadness God help you all, the
insane and wise The
black and the
white, the
darkness of the
night I
see only smoke from the
chimneys arise The
pilot he flew all across the
sky and woke me He flew solo on the
mercury sea The
dream it came back, all about the
tall brown people The
sacred young herd on the
phosphorus sand
