lyrics
Don't take this flower for an ocean.
A breeze is blowing from over the sea.
In a life that lies beyond us yet
The notes upon
The blue guitar
Were things exactly
As they are.
Don’t speak of all our greatness.
A torch is dying under the ground,
Our vaults and structures come crashing down.
The Earth, for us
Is something rare;
Half in shadow,
All that’s there.
Don’t dream of life under amber,
Of shells cracking, dry in the air,
Become a class of things that are:
A blue guitar
A set of stars
Or those exactly
Who they are.
