Venus

I went down to the river yesterday

To see just what she'd say

Said you best believe that the better reprieve is always on it's way

Find an anchor made of stone, and follow me to the sea

Said you best believe that the better reprieve is where it's meant to be

Venus comes to share and she's standin' there

She plaits her hair with threads of gold

Two threads of gold

And I'm up on a chair with the badge in the air

Keepin' out the cold, keepin' out the cold

But some days I'm afraid of the lunacy, lit by the moon in me

Why must I always be drawn to the brightest shadows I can see?

Find an anchor made of stone, come follow me to the bay

Said you best believe that the better reprieve is always on it's way

And I see Venus comes to share and she's standing there

She plats her hair with threads of gold

Two threads of gold

And I'm up on a chair with the badge in the air

Keeping out the cold, keeping out the cold

Singing, my lover please, all this thinking never sees

The things mind cannot know

And all we ever do is learn the laws of the trellis

To better understand the rose

Isn't that right now? Isn't that right now?

Singing, my lover please, all this thinkin' never sees

The things mind cannot know

All we ever do is learn the laws of the trellis

To better understand the rose

To the callin' of the mornin' is the fallen lovers leap

To the callin' of the mornin' is the fallen lovers leap

To the callin' of the mornin' is the fallen lovers leap

To the callin' of the mornin' is the fallen lovers leap

To the callin' of the mornin' is the fallen lovers leap

To the callin' of the mornin' is the fallen lovers leap

To the callin' of the mornin' is the fallen lovers leap

To the callin' of the mornin' is the fallen lovers leap

To the callin' of the mornin' is the fallen lovers leap

To the callin' of the mornin' is the fallen lovers leap
