It'll End In Tears
------------------
2 Song to the Siren
(Buckley/Beckett)
Long afloat on shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
'Til your singing eyes and fingers
Drew me loving to your isle
And you sang
Sail to me
Sail to me
Let me enfold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you hare when I was fox?
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken lovelorn on your rocks
For you sing, 'Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow;
O my heart, O my heart shines from the sorrow'
Well, I'm puzzled as the newborn child
I'm troubled as the tide
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Should I lie with death my bride?
Hear me sing, 'Swim to me, swim to me, let me enfold you;
Here I am, here I am, waiting to hold you'
7 Another Day
Your cat is alone
Your son has come home
Another day
She offers me
To bow unto me
On a flowered trail
She's at the door
She wants to score
She dearly means to say
I loved you a long time ago
Where the winds of forget-me-nots blow
On the drifts could I let myself go
Not knowing when I knew her
And what's to know?
How I wished that I had
Cause I'm feeling so sad
That I never had one of your children
And across the morning
You said it to me right
Our chance just wants to rest
And now that it's gone
We'll still hang on
In each other's dreams
I was taken
I had the words to may come
By the draft he'll means
And feel the juice run as she flies
Run my wings under her sides
As the flames of eternity rise
To lick us with the first born
Lash of dawn
And really makes here
I can see what we feel
Said I have a sense in between her hair
And at the door
We can't say more
Just another day
Only flung his arm
Onto who we are
And I walk away
