[length: 10:50]
[02:57.75]The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land
[03:03.35]Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky
[03:08.40]A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers
[03:12.94]But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking
[03:23.01]He’s haunted by the memory of a lost paradise
[03:28.10]In his youth or a dream, he can’t be precise
[03:33.06]He’s chained forever to a world that’s departed
[03:37.62]It’s not enough, it’s not enough
[04:08.12]His blood has frozen and curdled with fright
[04:12.94]His knees have trembled and given way in the night
[04:18.48]His hand has weakened at the moment of truth
[04:23.04]His step has faltered
[04:33.49]One world, one soul
[04:43.24]Time pass, the river rolls
[05:53.04]And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication
[05:58.10]And silent replies that swirl invitation
[06:02.69]Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea
[06:08.16]A grim intimation of what is to be
[06:17.94]There’s an unceasing wind that blows through this night
[06:22.92]And there’s dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight
[06:27.73]And silence that speaks so much louder than words
[06:32.57]Of promises broken
[10:43.55]
