And Hiding Away - The Innocence Mission |
| [00:18.54] |
I prize the cloudy, tearing sky |
| [00:22.66] |
|
| [00:23.42] |
for the thoughts that flap and fly. |
| [00:26.91] |
For staying in and reading by. |
| [00:30.87] |
|
| [00:31.96] |
For sitting under. |
| [00:33.50] |
|
| [00:34.35] |
I read a book of Madeline |
| [00:37.50] |
|
| [00:39.25] |
and her friends in two straight lines, |
| [00:42.30] |
|
| [00:42.83] |
in Paris, in a house with vines |
| [00:46.33] |
|
| [00:47.75] |
over its old face. |
| [00:50.37] |
Far, far is Paris... |
| [00:52.48] |
|
| [00:53.18] |
and the sky is dark with mystery. |
| [00:56.40] |
|
| [01:14.29] |
Try, catch the thoughts that flap and fly |
| [01:18.24] |
|
| [01:18.95] |
in the cloudy, tearing sky, |
| [01:22.04] |
|
| [01:22.58] |
that touch and stir and won't be tied |
| [01:26.07] |
|
| [01:27.56] |
and try to speak them. |
| [01:29.52] |
|
| [01:30.14] |
I think of my old Flower Sky. |
| [01:33.82] |
|
| [01:34.95] |
Of us, when we thought we were spies. |
| [01:38.02] |
|
| [01:38.55] |
Of bobbing eggs in Easter dyes. |
| [01:41.85] |
|
| [01:43.40] |
Of walks in London. |
| [01:45.42] |
|
| [01:45.99] |
Try, try to hold my love for you, |
| [01:50.36] |
it knows no measure. |
| [01:51.98] |
|
| [02:23.98] |
This is a day for hearing bagpipes |
| [02:27.93] |
|
| [02:28.85] |
somewhere playing. |
| [02:29.99] |
|
| [02:31.79] |
This is a day for hearing sarabands |
| [02:36.06] |
|
| [02:36.71] |
and hiding away. |
| [02:40.07] |
|
| [02:42.70] |
hiding away |
| [02:43.98] |
|
| [02:46.57] |
hiding away |
| [02:48.21] |
|
| [02:50.60] |
hiding away |
| [02:51.92] |
|
| [03:09.54] |
Sky, I hold my tears if you do. |
| [03:13.04] |
|
| [03:15.46] |
Starling thoughts, go over me. |
