I see his eyes moving away from me
Oh no, is this another albatross?
He knows he holds dominion over me
But what I gain is worth the cost

We share the cold embrace of cousins
I wonder if I've seen him somewhere else before
And as I wonder at his ancestry
I miss the meeting by the door

And in the telling of the story
I lose my way inside a prepositional phrase
I read his lips and I see glory
But what I hear is 'be afraid'

So from the fog of every morning
Until the heat of day is still
I watch the clock as it turns backwards
I see the water run uphill

And in the telling of the story
I lose my way inside a prepositional phrase
I read his lips and I see glory
But what I hear is 'be afraid'

And in the telling of the story
I lose my way inside a prepositional phrase
I read his lips and I see glory
But what I hear is 'be afraid'

Guitar parts were made by Andy Summers on ecsta.

Totally agree with CoJo on the music,
Album cover art, not so much.
THIS is why I listen to Radio Paradise! Love playing songs for my friends that I find here and having them say Wow, what a great song
Bill, play this more often please! Stellar song and rhythm.
I really dig this group! Everything I've heard by them seems so experimentally cool. Lots going on here....a sound of awesome intensity and unique familiarity, as well. I'm smitten. Thanks, RP!
