THE WALLFLOWERS lyrics : "nearly beloved"

Last night I dreamt one thousand lies
I could see the dawn through a different set of eyes
There in my slumber passing time

Long live the world resting on its side

I walked the orchard with you

Your hand in mine
In the evergreens drinking wine
I saw the snow fall in black and white

Fram the auburn sky
Last night I lived more than one thousand lives
Not one of them survived


Up through the earth and at dawn I came
I crossed the kingdom through venom pouring rain

In the vacuum of my own brigade
Resurrected to make you mine


Orpheus looked back once
She sailed the underworld
No second chances will be earned

I have returned as a phantom now



To walk the bow and stern
Last night I lived more than one thousand lives
Not one of them survived


If we could do better I know that we would
Maybe admit it now, we're not that good

We keep the needle between zero and one
You play your fiddle, baby, I'll play dumb


Into the pastures of our minds
Goes my nearly beloved and I
Blazing two parallel white lines

Through this broken heart spilt open wide

Time may be on my side

But it's mostly far behind
I was the apple of your eye
Now I'm the boy spinning on a wheel there

Stuck with knives
Last night I lived more than one thousand lives
Not one of them survived
