How the storm howls and it seems like the wind will blow forever,
You lie in my arms while th skies rant and rave and shout damnations at creation,
Your touch is so loving but the savage in you is what I really need,
Vital elemental echoes of that original sin.
And when the golden rays of the rising sun,
Make long shadows on the wal,l
You may recall what I said,
Simple is never easy.
See the black clouds clearing...to the east... to the east,
Like the last slow dying movement of a Stockhausen Symphony.
The storm has blown the world crisp and clean... scouring deep,
And some god paints the sky with new illusions of infinity,
And when the golden rays of the midday sun,
Stir the flames within us all,
You may recall what I said,
Simple is never easy.
Just suppose we stay together till the end here in this darkened room,
Would you remember, at the end, to hold me and never let me go?
And when the golden rays of the setting sun,
Throw long shadows on us all,
You may recall what I said
Simple is never easy.

A breeze as soft as new washed hair,
Caressed his face ... so young, so fair,
The scented thrill of the fresh morning air.
And as he walked through the dawn,
The world seemed new... as if reborn,
The eye of calm in the midst of a storm.
Sweet is the air, how fair is the day,
He's one breath away just one breath away.
A tear in his eye as he looks to the sky,
One heartbeat away from paradise.
Oh the rose, the gentle rose,
The fennel blooms so strong and sweet,
There's no-one left to grieve over me.
Beyond all knowing... beyond all gain,
Beyond the thorns of mortal pain,
Beyond all darkness... I will call out your name.
Sweet is the air, how fair is the day,
He's one breath away... just one breath away,
A tear in his eye as he looks to the sky,
One heartbeat away from paradise.

Amy Isn't Waiting

I don't know why I left the train,
I saw the sign and I knew the name,
So I got off and walked around
The place she came to settle down.
Up and down the lonely streets.
Hope against hope that we might meet
But I've looked around and I can see
Nobody is waiting.
It was just a fantasy
Somehow, I thought, her and me
So long ago we broke apart
We were so young for affairs of the heart.
I don't know why I came at all
Something in me heard the call
But I've looked around and I can see
Nobody is waiting.
This cafe's closing for the day
My train is due.. I must away
So get up boy, get on your feet
Or you'll be sleeping on the street
I must put this behind me now
Some things are just not meant to be
But deep inside, I wonder how
Life with her might be
It was just a fantasy
Somehow, I thought, her and me
So long ago we broke apart
We were so young for affairs of the heart.
I don't know why I came at all
Something in me heard the call
But I've looked around and I can see
Nobody is waiting.
It was just a fantasy
Somehow, I thought, her and me
So long ago we broke apart
We were so young... maybe not so smart
I don't know why I came at all
Something in me heard the call
But I've looked around and I can see
Amy isn't waiting
For me

When I was in Denmark
All my world was pain
All my trust was broken
And all my love in vain
Felt I couldn't settle
Knew I couldn't pray
So I kept on moving
Always leaving
Through the mist and rain
Time went oh so slowly with nothing much to show
Staring at the winding road
What did I care, what needed repair
Was deep in my soul
When I was in Denmark
All the skies were grey
Now I'm back in England
Blue skies are on the way
Thought I'd be a rover
Till my dying day
but then I met a lovely gypsy lady
I know I'm going to stay
Yes I'm going to stay
