Lyrics for An Hour Before the Light
And when I see your sunlit eyes it turns my laughter Into stone I wait a single hour before the light unreal and alone Summer's waxing in the air the meadows stretch And onwards to st James square Oh my mind's astray I dream of you each fevered night the stars are cold And singing in an august sky That breaks into the day Are you really in the lonely evening light That falls in shadows to the ground And when I wake enchanted and alone I don't know where to turn my eyes Summer's waxing in the air the meadows stretch And onwards to St James square Oh my mind's astray An afternoon on Saturday before the stars Can shine upon the streets of grey And you and I go home And when I see your sunlit eyes it turns my laughter Into stone I wait a single hour before the light unreal and alone
