Flowing Tears Portsall Lyrics

Portsall Lyrics


we laid on the back on a latesummernight
when we ran out of words we
could say
like two stranded stars on a deepfrozen sky
so gone but afraid
not to say

we counted the stars any latesummernight
and we watched
their departure all day
"tomorrow we'll join 'em" we dreamt many
times
but tomorrow was so far away

and the moon, and the
stars,
and the summernight sky
that dirty old barn, and the grey in our
eyes
the harbour, the sea, and the rivers of plight

and still we're
so far away...

and still we lay on the back
another
latesummernight
so gone but afraid not to stay
