Rhymes of Goodbye
found on: Shanti Project Collection Vol. 2
[duet with Paula Frazer - the song is by Scott Walker]
 
I've come from far from chains, from metal and stone
From makeshift designs, I'm seeking a star
To grab for the truth, to keep myself warm
I turn and it's gone, you smile and it's born

The rhymes of the moment are secrets that never end
The rhymes of dimensions surrounds us with fire and friends
And roaring through darkness, the night children fly
I can still hear them singing the rhymes of goodbye

There's nothing within, but within says a voice
That's still my empire, and I still got a choice
That seedless of death, it still got a fire
And I'll keep it burning, with hands of desire
 
The bells of our senses can cost us our pride,
can toll out the boundaries that level our lives,
can slash like the sunlight through shadows and cracks
Our nakedness calling our nakedness back

The rhymes of our passions find beauty in loving love
The rhymes of our madness burn cities, pushes and shoves
And rhyming through darkness, the night children fly
I can still hear them singing the rhymes of goodbye
