Meeting was a pleasure

Oh meeting was a pleasure
and the half moon shone bright
with the soft air a blowing
through the warmth of the night
And I waited for the secret
and the blossom it grew
on the branches on the branches
was the meeting I knew
And some take to robbing
and some watch the doors
and some leave like strangers
but I will meet you once more
Oh blue eyes make this being
seem a wonder, seem a joy
and meeting was a pleasure
yes meeting was a pleasure
yes meeting was a pleasure
and I watched for your voice
Though the freedom of the winder
made the night times seem long
I heard you say love, it
might not always be wrong

There falls the light

There falls the light
it's like a path that won't
come right it's a call
that goes unheard its like
the untouched love, I saw
And I can find the days
awake won't change alone
temperature it stays below
it's never warm it's like a strange
emerging soul I reached for
And all the fighting that I heard
was just the sound of untrue words
was just the sound of someone lost
in the winter of their world
where silence steals
There falls the light
against the dark
there falls the light
against the walls
there hides the night
that reveals and then fights
and that's all
There falls the night

Divide
03:00
|

And the leaves will grow again
and by the fire there was a picture
he was gone but remembered
she was here but alone
And the fear will go again
and by the door there'll be a stranger
whispering stories to the sender
of the news, and then alone
We were bent but were not broken
we were spent but not forsaken
we were leant against the tides
there's nothing you can't divide
In the night I heard the voice
like a fractured heart rendered
never words laid together
meant so little when alone
We were dreamt of but unspoken
we were left but kept resentment
we were sent to meet the tides
there's nothing you can't divide
