Текст песни September

Into this strange elastic world Pontus kindly gave up a pearl Of his eternal stone and mud And ain't she lovely bone and blood Born of the sea A thousand miles away from me A court of angels Wards of the Sun A future forming A curse undone Under our softly burning lamps she takes her time Telling stories of our possible lives And love is the ink in the well when her body writes I've been selfish and full of pride And she knows deep down there's a little child But i've got a good side to me as well And it's that she loves in spite of everything else A song in the tree has distracted her mind Some other curious form of life Has made its presence to her known And she coos so gently, soft and low Her shining face in a million reflections On tiny raindrops that fall in a veil Over our city like notes from above It overwhelms me i just ain't that tough It's not that the darkness can't touch our lives I know it will in time But she's no ordinary valentine And now when the Sun goes down she sheds a darling light I've been selfish and full of pride And she knows deep down there's a little child But i've got a good side to me as well And it's that she loves in spite of everything else
