Lyrics (unofficial)

[rev. May 31, 2018]

Nobody knows where you come from
Full of ideas and light
Down to your toes, you are a song
With silver threads of night
You only appear where shadows play
And sometimes you like to hide
And then you're a dove or a tiger's claw
I feel you deep inside

And if you wear your cloak of jewels
Or your anger on your sleeve

If I imagine you into reality
Can we dance like man and wife
Can we fuse our souls to our dying breath
Then you bring me back to life

And when you don't come I sit and wait
In a lonely room
Weaving my thoughts in complex webs
Waiting for your loom
The candle burns on till morning comes
I listen to my dreams
Whatever I wish in this reverie
You're never what it seems

Can't you grace this humble heart
Capricious spectre come to me

If I imagine you into reality
Can we dance like man and wife
Can we fuse our souls to our dying breath
Then you bring me back to life

If I imagine you into reality
Can we dance like man and wife
Can we fuse our souls to our dying breath
Then you bring me back to life
