Lyrics for Moths by Tull Jethro:
| | | Artist: | Tull Jethro |
| | Album: | Heavy Horses | | Track: | Moths | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 71 | | | | Lyrics: | The leaded window opened
to move the dancing candle flame
And the first Moths of
summer
suicidal came
And a new breeze chattered
in its May-bud
tenderness
Sending water-lillies sailing
as she turned to get undressed.
And the
long night awakened
and we soared on powdered wings
Circling our tomorrows
in
the wary mouth of Spring.
Chasing shadows slipping
in a magic lantern
slide
Creatures of the candle
on a night-light-ride.
Dipping and weaving
flutter
through the golden needle's eye
in our haystack madness.
Butterfly-stroking
on a Spring-tide high.
Life's too long (as the Lemming said)
as the candle burned and the Moths were wed.
And we'll all burn together as the wick grows
higher
before the candle's dead.
The leaded window opened
to move the
dancing candle flame.
And the first moths of summer
suicidal came
to join in
worship
of the light that never dies
in a moment's reflection
of two
Moths spinning in her eyes | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
