Above the blue

That crystal throws
Glass shadows home
When the day is long
Rain on the city
Men are weary
A silent blue
A wind blows
The summer knows
Your time with us is though
The world goes spinning round again
And the dream dust covers you

Blue butterflies danced in her eyes
When they fell upon you
Painless and pretty
Far from weary
A thousand moons ago
A red rose
The thistle chose
For to love in truth
The world goes spinning round again
And the piper calls their tune

Our sombre drive
Late blossom sighs
Today we must be strong
Eyes full of pity
A rose is weary
Of shadows long
Through the window
Thistles like roses know
To ashes many years must fall
The world goes spinning round again
Something here is waking up

And I won't ask again
If the rainbow has an end
For shimmering with truth
Across the way was solid proof

An eve of summer rain
We laughed away the pain
And there above the blue
Rose the angel that is you
