Oysterband - The Shouting End of Life

By Northern Light

Walking away
You were walking away for ever
No more to say
End of the heart's endeavour

Bitter the wind on the back of my neck
Bitter the glance that you threw me
Bitter the wave on the knuckle of rock
Time and tide will cover

CHORUS
Fear and beauty shake my heart
Memories pursue me
Not to let them break my heart
I let the wave roll through me ...
See these things by northern light
You'll never see them clearer
Love's as short as summer nights
By northern light,
My dear

Touching your face
The braille of blind affection
Taking for grace
The spark that must find connection

Easy the breeze on the pond in the park
Easy the laughter that drew me
Easy the walk hand-in-hand until dark
Glow of the lamp's reflection

CHORUS x2

See these things by northern light
You'll never see them clearer
Love's as short as summer nights
By northern light,
My dear
My dear
