Come wonder with me Through a young girl's dream Don't wake me up too soon There's a halo on the moon
You hunger, I'll thirst Pink stars do burst God of lightning, goddess of fern A map to memorise a lullaby to learn
Come on, darling, take me there Where red clouds bloom and fill the air Where my purple heart beats to your jet black snare Up on Piney Point, if you dare
You're my blood, you're my wine You're my mountain to climb Say you're mine, you're mine, you're mine!
Bride in the fog, and no way out Can't see my own hands, can't hear a sound Where angels conspire and heroes do drown I am lost in the mire upside down
Is that my soul on fire whirling by? Take a walk, man of God I just want to die
I tell you, my friend The widow is on my trail
You'll hear her, you will know her A chill on the skin, a song in the wind
To wander, to roam, to never know home To lie under a sky of blood reds and pale blues To tread ten thousand miles in a dead man's shoes There's a demon loose, a demon loose I can't get home, I can't get home
For the road is a snake of mist In the shadow of a rebel's fist His jacket on my back, his bones on the shore But the secret to dreams is to dream up a door A portrait of him, a picture of her A keyhole in a Douglas Fir
