summer mourning - duncan sheik lyrics

[verse 1:]
summer mourning
i resolved to slip away
there is nothing, there is no one
who would have a word to say
i venture off down some suburban london lane
there is nothing, there is no one
to whom i need explain
i turn, i turn and the houses fall behind
who would have thought
that i’d be one who would so hope to find
these pale green fields
their vibrating repet-tion
the slight change from the morning
to the afternoon edition

[chorus:]
so long, so long
moving on, moving on

[verse 2:]
the road it narrows and head high flowers appear
thick with some toxicity
a solved but certain fear
and in this grove a channel cuts its small divide
i expect to find ophelia drifting calmly by

[chorus]

[verse 3:]
so i continue, i alight upon the town
admiring the people moving purposely around
in the market there’s a woman
so elegantly veiled
perfect darkness of her fabric
at description, i would fail
do i imagine or do i catch her gaze
does she smile for a moment within the summer haze
it hardly matters. did i forget to say
i’m a spectre
i’m a shadow across a perfect summer day

[chorus:]
moving on, for leaving off
away, away, away
