He The Richmond

There comes an affair in the tides of men When you can't go back again Yes there comes a darkness in the affairs of light When you can't hold back the night So you go where your mind will keep Where the rain plays the restless to sleep On the notes of a broken piano O the rivers and the seas and you that ride them forever They called my name to your darkeyed ranks to leave them never Yes my name it is written in the sand And it can't escape your sweeping hand There comes a time as tides must come When they leave, take some, leave some Yes there comes a wave in the seas of men When you can't swim back again So you go where your mind will keep Where the wind lulls the restless to sleep In the beams of the broken headlights
