Альбом The Tea Party

Silence swimming in a pool of dreams
Beneath its depths the forgotten streams
Above, the city of the evening star
Behind its walls, the grand bazaar
As she walks through its endless maze
Cursing those who mistrust her ways
Please my friend no matter what she sees
Tell my lover come back to me

Doorways spilling out their sombre light
Casting shadows that will raid the night
Along the alleys of her ruling fears
Walk the visions that will cause her tears
Lying still as she wills her glance
Through the eyes of a charmers trance
Please my friend no matter what she sees
Tell my lover come back to me

And on the walls
Shadows play
Twilight souls
Anguished ways
Lost adrift
Severed seas
I await you

Over the skies and sea my love
Over the sky and sea
Riding the crest of winds
Above bringing her back to me

Into the starlit sea my love
Into the moonlit sea
Riding the crest of winds above
I'm begging you stay with me

Would you walk ten miles with me my love
Would you walk the skies with me
Would you walk ten miles with me my love

Turn the lamp down low
Shelter me
Turn the lamp down low
Rising up to see
Please don't go

Do you feel a flame that's burning
As the candle dies
Do you see the spirits stirring
As you close your eyes
Do you sense the slow advancement
As the twilight thins
Do you see the serpent dancing
As it sheds its skin

Turn the lamp down low
Please don't go

Does the sun renounce it's kingdom
As the shadows fall
Does a fool rejoice in wisdom
When the raven calls
Do you embrace the dancing clayman
As he tears your flesh
Do you hear the souls screaming
In the serpents mesh

Turn the lamp down low
Please don't go

Do you need the consolation
Of a dead man's hand
As the tears of desolation
Flood a dead man's land
Do you seek your souls redemption
Under fervent skies
Don't you see your own reflection

Silent spirit walks before me
With her beauty and with her eyes
Heaven help me
I feel I'm fading
I should rest here for a while

In the dreamtime I'm awakened
As my senses seize the night
Heaven help me
I'm forsaken
I should rest here for a while

And lie in the bed you've made ophelia
Dry are the lips that lost their taste of love
Drown in the waters that would give you life
Cry as this lamentation thrusts its knife

In silence
In silence

featuring Roy Harper

Beautiful youth
Spirit away
Yesterday's truth left yesterday
When hellfire froze right over

Time time enough
Climbing the bluff
Never again
Not even when hellfire freezes over

Seeing us off
Over the cliff
Watching us fall in love
Loving it all in loving loving love

Time for the rest of time
How can we forget
Time for the rest of time
How we lovers met
Time for the rest of time
Yeah just don't waste it
Time for the rest of time
In the whole sunset

Mighty will fall
Holy must rise
Saying it all
Hello goodbyes
As hellfire freezes over

Seeing us off
Over the cliff
Watching us fall in love
Loving it all in loving loving love

Time for the rest of time
How could we forget
Time for the rest of time
How we lovers met
Time for the rest of time
Yeah just don't waste it
Time for the rest of time
In the whole sunset
Time for the rest of time
How could we forget
Time for the rest of time
How we lovers met
Time for the rest of time
Yeah just don't waste it
Time for the rest of time
In the whole sunset
In the whole sunset
For the rest of time

When the winter was over
She returned there to find him
And her memories filled her with light

She remembered the beauty
She remembered desires
And her memories filled her with light

I am the sun in the flame
Cold from the flame turns away
And in these winds came a change
She awakes...

Sister walk through these fields of delight
But I want you to know
Desperation's the tenderest trap
So gently you go
What will it take
Sister awake

When this beautiful cult of desire
Has left you for dead
Isolation will cradle the lies
Of things left unsaid
What will it take
Sister awake

And you'll look to the heavens above
And taste it's deceit
These temptations have blinded desires
To sleep at their feet
What will it take
Sister awake

And you'll hear them call out your name
Invoking the fates
Chances are you've travelled too far
In stirring their hate
What will it take
Sister awake
