Speaking In Lampblack

There's a sound of a million voices right beside a window view

And the pulse of the static drumming slips down past, unaware

But she remembers the moon tonight

When everything turns around all right

There was something she wanted to say

In the trails of the lampblack burning is just smoke that stains the walls

And she recalls the breaking of patterns

And the spells that once were real and held so true

Everything comes around at once again

There's something she wanted to say

I would hold our sacred moments dear to my heart, close to me

I would keep you in my morning if I'm lost and fail to see

If we fall where words are stranded, I would reach for only you

And shout across the fear we're holding to pull you back to me again

Hear me call

Hey Love, let the summer invade you and open every doorway to your heart

Hey Love, let every season embrace you

Just look around and see everything is blended as one

You speak to me across our living time where words hang on and on

They hold me still, in the moonlit charge

You hold me still

Unspoken words, too late to be heard

Out of touch and blurred, out of time and place

Time has no name and regret has no meaning

We've said what we should have

We've seen what we could have but we've heard so late

Too late
