about

The slow one. The 'ballad', for want of a better word. I always wrote the ballads. Always loved writing them. Still do. Reckon this is a good one. Hope you enjoy it.

lyrics

When the moon backs down in the morning
And the starlight dies on a vine
When my weary face looks upon another day
I'll be breaking, with you on my mind

When the haze hangs low early evening
And the dew lies wet on the fields
When the rooks settle in, oh but I can't even begin
To find peace here 'til you will proceed

When my eyes display what my mouth can no longer say
It'll be, it'll be, it'll be

Well, my faith in you in you has been shaken
And that halo no longer shines
For in all honesty, you have flattered to deceive
I was foolish to drink from your wine

When my eyes display what my mouth can no longer say
It'll be, it'll be, it'll be

I believe I know this finally, that this lie no longer works for me
I believe, I believe

When my words reveal what my heart can no longer conceal
They will not be
No longer be
No longer be

No longer be for you
No longer be for you
No longer be for you
No longer be for you
