lyrics

The spell of the rain

A grace is the rain
For those who can rest
Silent drowning no quest
So come maids of water
And the holiest of you

Wash deep all the images
For I want to recall
That kernel of light
Life dust has obscured
As I was passing by….by…

Once she came on a tidal wave
Her gift: a breath of a rare life
Violent was the sea and jealous
When far abducted its gorgeous daughter

Call her? …. Call her?

No, a name ain’t enough for my lady…lady
A choir perhaps could give her smile
But ten thousands voices won’t least to found
An universe of resounding harmonics…harmonics

Taking by the hand I have she said she is too cold…..
Just a sign
Still we feel divided from far she calls me
Inside the screaming
Taking by the hand I have she said she is too…..
