She Floats
She got a smile that seems to enamour me.
I think her face will live down in history.
Only time can find if I am wrong.
Elysium has passed on antiquity.
The sands will shift and claim all the mystery
And who will ever remember all the songs?
And all is gone that you had said to me,
And all has gone that you had done for me.
Time'll slip by and all will be lost.
She floats over me and suddenly she's gone.
Something died inside that had stayed too long.
She floats over me and suddenly she's gone.
I gotta, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta go back.
Saying their prayers and bowing in deference,
People are wandering round in reverence.
Do they feel the weight of their disease?
If all the soldiers outside the battlements
Packed up and left, this wouldn't be the thousandth
Time that you left me there to bleed.
Two great armies stood facing off and
Each one knew they'd fight to the last man
But no one knew what had started it.
And as they clash in a heaving mass and
Swords pierce flesh and break their necks,
My final thoughts all fade to black.
(lyrics by Graham Keeling)
