That Vanishing Day Lyrics

I walked with you through vanishing noon

Beneath leaves on trembled and banished moons

I'd die for a sudden sense of who we were

Those tremors for which we had no words

What would wayfarers reaching the horizon say of

People like us, to you and I, exactly

Of our faith in ghost necessity

Captive to our timid polity

I cling to this day by its hair

Yours floats in the morning air

We slip into each other's wake

Living to be each other's thirst

At autumn's shore, wet with melancholy

Damned to undress this day forever

The question rolls in my mind

Like the pebble in my hand

Poised to slice the wind

I cling to this day by its hair

Yours floats in the morning air

We slip into each other's wake

Longing to be each other's thirst

Thus says the sea

There are always wings above my waves

Beyond my reach

But everything returns to me

I cling to this day by its hair

Yours floats in the morning air

We slip into each other's wake

Living to be each other's thirst
