Lyrics

[02:54.00] The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land
[02:59.00] Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky
[03:04.09] A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers
[03:08.68] But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking
[03:18.96] He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise
[03:23.93] In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise
[03:28.95] He's chained forever to a world that's departed
[03:33.97] It's not enough, it's not enough
[04:04.56] His blood has frozen & curdled with fright
[04:09.54] His knees have trembled & given way in the night
[04:14.44] His hand has weakened at the moment of truth
[04:19.59] His step has faltered
[04:29.92] One world, one soul
[04:40.02] Time pass, the river rolls
[05:50.87] And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication
[05:55.71] And silent replies that swirl invitation
[06:00.79] Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea
[06:05.92] A grim intimation of what is to be
[06:15.86] There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night
[06:20.96] And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight
[06:26.00] And silence that speaks so much louder than words
[06:31.04] Of promises broken
