Silver City

Off in the evening wind Towards my ivory home again Off on the roof is dotted steam Moss across the skin Close every open shade Let no light or dividing rays Mine is a simple, lonesome home Golden and decayed To your window, quiet and serene Came to me in three listless dreams Go to the silver city, down by the sea Salty air from there to where we'll be Four leagues passed up, greater we'll be Until you are teeth to the sea I am forgiven like a dog onto me Like the day the dying wave I'll see Not today, forever and a day 'Til the dying bell has blown across the sea Close every open shade Let no light or dividing rays There are holy roses and thorns There are only two of us Row for forever darling, row for the sea Broken wave and dying bell I'll see Not today, forever and a day 'Til the dying bell has blown across the sea Close every open shade Let no light or dividing rays Mine is a simple, lonesome home Golden and decayed
