SALT MINE

Far from the beaches
and the windswept heather
deep in our salt mine
where we dream
that we'd fall

When we go
scenes from the film still roll
And the mind can let go
of what time would kill so slow

Awake
from a dream of falling
still falling
you know that I'd miss you
but I can't
miss you when I'm gone

When we go
scenes from the film still roll
And the mind can let go
of what time would kill so slow

We don't believe in ghosts
but we're afraid of the dark
a counterfeit of night
remember moonlight
remember rain
on the tides of sleep
our eyes grow cold while we cry
and the hours lost unwind

Awake
from a dream of falling
still falling
you know that I'd miss you
but I can't
miss you when I'm gone
