Bathe yourself in shades of night Remove the light of day Comb the worry from your hair And feel it fall away Find a thing of which youβre sure Then turn it on its side Bring it to me by the edge of the sea At the cusp of the morning tide
Blink away the filaments Illusion has you blind And a cobweb of confusion Is enveloping your mind Take solace in an empty jar And ***** the lid on tight Bring it to me by the sycamore tree In the middle of yesterday night
Clothe your form in alchemy With just a twist of lime Smash the face of every clock To save yourself some time Take a single weary breath And wrap it up in twine Bring it to me by the duty free In exchange for a bottle of wine
