Across the shore
The slow waves
A mirrored sky stretching over
On your side
The lights fade
Into the clouds, in the late tide
A heart beating
Must be the sound I hear
from far away
(The night repeating
The sound I’m hearing)
An echo leaving
The words disappearing
On the page
(An echo leaving
Words reappearing)
Are we hearing
What might be the ring of endless days
(The night repeating
The sound I’m hearing)
Echoes leaving
The words disappearing on the page
(Echoes leaving
Words reappearing)
Imagined lines
Where our cities were
Left our figures there,
Drifting shadows
Open avenues
I see all the way through
Our days, our minds
Afloat in time
Late night, I hear you
talking in your sleep
Ruins of memory, half waking-dream
Through the day, hardly awake
Watching the scenery fade on the screen

Now we’re here
The world is standing still
Finding ways
To calendar the days
That lie ahead
Like we often fear
All things, they disappear
Whenever I see you
I keep a reel of sudden pictures
In my head
Whenever I see you
Appearing in these sudden pictures
In my head
Once, I fell through cracks
In and out of a distant past
Lost in lights
Under fading signs
From far away
We don’t know
The waves will come and go
Whenever I see you
Appearing in these sudden pictures
In my head
Whenever I see you
Appearing in these sudden pictures
In my head
We don’t know
The waves will come and go

Some things we hear
But our ears are not well-suited for
Listening underwater
We meet as waves
Intersecting planes
Below the surface we dream
Only submarine
We drew the lines
Intercepting time
and now we’re floating in air
only halfway there
We carved a space
Within this place
Where everybody hurries by
Living different lives
Sometimes I think I just dreamed this scene
And not everyone is still around
Shadows came and left unseen
I close my eyes and hear the sound
