Winter Comes Summer

She was mediterranean brown

In the halflight

In the sunlight would i ever know

And you are lost in thought as i follow

The ghost of your cigarette

And jump train singing past your eyes

And i can taste you from here

Over where the window where the light is

And tonight we'll be lit by april storms

And the flickering static from the silent tv

In the corner of this room

Sepia days in bloom, wintercomessummer

Close your eyes in prayer, full brown

Sugarlips and we are in a bar

Visualise our veins transparent in the

Half light a cargo of alcohol and amphetamine

Catching up like a diseased broken steamtrain

Wintercomessummer

Above ourselves looking down, a glittering tinseltown

Those buses full of half lives, the lovers cars

At traffic lights, adultery, sapphic tendancies

Bored lovers on a saturday, virgins on the verge

Of disappearing, the oriental family in

Cantonese arguing, wintercomessummer

We'll fall together through dusk until morning

Autumn was a sweet lay but it's gorgeous

Brother's dawning... wintercomessummer...

La, la la la, la la la, la la la la la la,.....
