I lose my sleep and dream of worlds That lie between your fingers And hide behind your eyes, And dream of forests and forts of snow Where we may kneel and hold each other In our still young arms 'Till the moon goes out... And sleep and kiss You know it's time it's only time Who passes between us My shadow's long on the grass behind us In the bushes and fields The poppies drowsing still As the sun goes down Insistent cuckoo meets silent children It's only time who lies between us It's only time who creeps towards us And nods and crouches at our door It's 7 o'clock Stuck forever His face behind the dial When the snake is dead They put roses in their head When the roses die They put diamonds In the sky We all speak unknown languages To each other we're all half dead The motion of the hand The skeletal grace Unconscious under bright yellow moon We are walking like a shadow You and I You and I We 're walking like a shadow You and I
