Well, that's a schizophrenic, weird mix.
If this is right, I'd rather be wrong
If this is sight, I'd rather be blind
don't let this fading summer pass you by
black hands held so high
the vulture wheels and dives
something on the thermals yanked his chain
he smelled your boring apex
rotting on the tracks
he laughed under his breath because you thought you could outrun sorrow
The great Jessye Norman giving a stunningly casual and beautiful rendition of the "Havanaise" from one of my very favorite operas.
Now you go your way and I'll go mine
now and forever 'til the end of time
and I'll find somebody new and baby, we'll say we're through
and you won't matter anymore
The guilty undertaker cries
the lonely organ grinder cries
The silver saxophones say I should refuse you.
The cracked bells and washed-out horns
Blow into my face with scorn,
But it's not that way,
I wasn't born to lose you.
I want you...
You keep me running...
New Wave, avant-garde synthpop, I think this was called in the '80s.
Cold winter months and I'm thinking of you
How you got me high
I used to choreograph the airplanes in the sky
Our daily compromise, it is
Written in your signed armistice
He opens his eyes, falls in love at first sight
With the girl in the doorway
What beautiful lines, how full of life
After thousands of years, what a face to wake up to
He holds back a sigh as she touches his arm
She dusts off the bed where till now he's been sleeping
Under miles of stone, the dried fig of his heart
Under scarab and bone starts back to its beating
