Spring MCMLXXIV Songtext / Lyric

On a wind that is sailing through the morning

I have cut the harness off of my heart

On a tide that's rising with the dawning

I find I belong inside the dark



And when the waves roll in to cover me in shame

I avoid another sign of the efforts made in vain

I am just another ripple in the current of an age

Another crossed out name on another wrinkled page



Carry me home






There is a dream that tells me I am haunted

It comes to visit every fortnight or so

I wake up having lost all I have ever wanted

And a bleak apparition wants what I hold



And when the waves roll in to cover me in shame

I avoid another sign of the efforts made in vain

I am just another ripple in the current of an age

Another crossed out name on another wrinkled page



Carry me home



Should it disappear, should it go away

Would it mend the wounds I bare, the wounds of love

Could it reappear like a familiar tale?

Like a broken friendship that snuffs the moonlight above
