Lyrics
The Summer Of Discontent
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Another note afloat upon this paper sea
Explain to me
how this can be
Another face erased
from this tidal pool
Found one day
then swept away
I will carry you my love
If you can carry me
through this summer of our discontent
Another day away
from clutching hands
Explain to me
how this can be
I will carry you my love
If you can carry me
through this summer of our discontent
Another falling wave
upon this crumbling beach
How many more
until we meet?
I will carry you my love
If you can carry me
through this summer of our discontent
