Lyrics

I am looking for a place
 Can you help me?
 A narrow road descends a valley
 Scrub and heather
 Valley opens to a bay
 Of dull ochre sand
 Brown-grey cliffs and great grey sky
 Pale and glaring
 And in a black rockpool
 Two white carp swim
 There is no storm but a wind blows
 Strong and even
 Choppy waves and soundless drumming
 Cool salted air
 Between the sand and sea
 Promontory
 A band of black rock smooth and pitted
 Like a long flint
 {chorus}
 From the spit a black arch rises
 Black Senonian
 Like two pillars with a beam
 But of one piece
 Whether knapped or whether bitten
 By the winds teeth
 Jagged wetness all reflecting
 The sky’s brightness
