A Long-Time-Love Song

[Verse 1]
Can't trace this conversation
Words fragment and fall
Into blue shadows by a white-baked wall
Through shimmering spaces a single thrush calls
A song when it's over is no song at all

[Chorus]
And you know I long to feel that sail leaping in the wind
And I long to see what lies beyond that rim
Oh, ever-new lover and friend
Sing me that love song again

[Verse 2]
Time measured in summersaults
And flickering kids' play
Cross-world and southward it's a fine summer day
Translucent lifespan evaporates away
To bead on the cool grass in a cyclic ballet

[Chorus]
And you know I long to feel that sail leaping in the wind
And I long to see what lies beyond that rim
Oh, ever-nеw lover and friend
Sing me that lovе song again
Oh, ever-new lover and friend
Sing me that love song again
