though once a starling, dark i found
let go and drown no more
look above, this is your life
leave me here, there will be more
down with the end of a shift and my grandfather said
keep your head on and check your change
out of reach i haunt the bars on the streets
i chase all the head-lights, i'll take warmth from anywhere
Abigail, time and wine are no veil
i can still see your eyes all lit up like christmas
and i hope you know, on the sail of your ship
there's a prayer that the highland wind's slipped from my lips
and i hope you're secure, have found love, and are cared for
when we were just kids, all those things that i promised
i was too young to know it, or too shy to show that
a chance that's not taken does not make tomorrow
Abigail, time and wine are no veil
i can still see your smile fill my dark heart like a rainbow
and i know, i know that time can move slow
but sometimes so fast, i just cannot catch
all these voices and faces, they move at such paces
i cannot recall, i cannot recognise
i cry in the ally i know when my time comes
to walk alone through the valley, one name on my tongue:
Abigail, time and wine are no veil
i can still see your smile all lit up like christmas
Abigail, time and wine are no veil
i can still see your smile, all lit up
all lit up like, the birth of christ
i haunt the bars on the streets
i chase all the head-lights, i'll take warmth from anywhere

there's no pain, like from, the ones you love
and there's no burden, like from, the ones who love you
i'm trying to breathe clean between shooting stars
in this dying and darkening night tryin' to see
what we are
she looked straight into my eyes, said she was seeking connection
she looked straight into my eyes, seemed satisfied with her reflection
oh lonely, you're the only one who stood with me
oh lonely, it means so much that you hold me, in this world
in this world filled with the things we kill
in this mellifluous world filled with the things that would kill us
the harmonium plays and plays the same endless dirge
each time it begins it's like nothing I've ever heard
oh merciful memory, it means so much that you fail me
oh merciful memory, it almost means too much that you've failed me

broken halves of sky and sea
little boats of you and me
thou wilt not sail so wearily
i am here darling
the timeless march leaves honest minds
serving what´s been left behind
our first and final hours blind but
i am here darling
broken halves of sky and sea
little boats of you and me
thou wilt not sail so wearily
i am here darling, though
lifes´ labours vain
their saviour´s dying
but i will, keep you safe in my arms
for a while
lifes´ labours vain
the aged are tired from trying
but i will, keep you safe in my arms
for a while
lifes´ labours vain
our state is lying
but i will, keep you safe in my arms
for a while
lifes´ labours vain
their saviour´s dying
but i will, keep you safe in my arms
for a while
when the bard fell
there spilt a thousand words
crowds trampled over eulogies
in the courtyard a prince was heard to sigh
for less than this
kingdoms die
if i could, i would
read your heart

fortune's never earned, it's stolen
the poor rarely write their names
if i had a song i'd sing it and turn your way
we saved to see the sunset
we wrote to read we were not alone
my father paid for my sister's wedding, afraid she'd grow old alone
we found faith, we found faith in our city homes
saw the human stain in every hand-carved throne
she looked down at her hand, while the condor was passing
she looked down at her hand, while the eagle was passing
she looked down at her babies, while her time was passing
know what you mean to me, we're so old now, we're so old now
too old not to believe in our shared history
we're so old now
we found faith, we found faith in our city homes
we saved to see the sunset
we wrote to read we were not alone
my father paid for my sister's wedding, afraid she'd grow old alone
we found faith, we found faith in our city homes
she looked down at her hand, while the condor was passing
she looked down at her hand, while the eagle was passing
she looked down at her babies, while her time and the eagle were passing
