Sleep in the grass
Let the silence embrace me
Time took her in, with his loveless desire

Sang her a sweet lullaby

Frail as a ghost

She was fading so slowly
I knew she was leaving me soon
Then with a smile and a whisper she kissed me

"Claire, I will come for you soon"

We heard the tolling of bells in the distance, I begged her not to stray

But in the morning this house was half empty, she found her bed in the grass

Mornings are pale

And the sea side deserted
Summer has left me behind
I hope that Sally will know where to find me

If she comes looking for me

I hear her whispers through radio static, I see her face in the clouds

And in the morning this house will be empty
Make me a bed in the grass
