A child just like any other
Made of the bones of the earth
fragile and deathless
Yes, I'm alright
I'm a church,
And I'm burning down
You are on my mind
- 3. The wind
Your eyes are colored like wind Wind from the northern sea A wave on the sand so clear Whoever got me that far must be laughing All right, I can laugh as well
So sweet is your touch May I never go free But I'm breaking away To return unbound And I hear the sound Behind my shoulder Like the shape of the swan, gliding
And when trees are bare There will be nowhere to return to But we stay, believing
Your eyes are colored like wind Bringing incredible news I don't know if I'm ready Does it matter ?
Whoever cut me that deep I love you And here I stand trans fixed Listening to the sound of the wind

- 4. Winter
Now that the summer is gone Snow's on the ground I sought and I found I known what I found is true But the bitter gray sky Fades into silence Only the fire is left And some say it's not enough To carry us through
Day of the apple bloom white Silver and steel Tales of webs Spun around a careless heart I dream of the snow-white sea gulls Crying to snow me the way But I will stay here with you And nothing will ever come To tear us apart
Look into my eyes, sister No harm will come to you Look into my eyes, sister No harm will come to you
Boris Grebenshikov - vocals, guitar Olle Romo - drums, synclavier
- 5. The tiме
Sitting in a corner In my castle made of single-malt and smoke With all my friends around me And I love them till I choke And I watch you dance with someone Someone not even there And you're simple as in "sacrilege" And you're pure as in "player"
Someone there's a point of no resistance But we make sure there's no getting there And we're beautiful when we're animals But so easily scared And I cannot even talk to you Stricken down as a hunter to its prey Sliding down, down this hill of glass again And there's nothing I can say
CHORUS:
I guess it's just the time I guess it's just the time I guess it's just the time And I will see you when the time is over
And then the northern wind calls And then curtains part And then the castle wall falls And there's an arrow in my heart
There's only one way out of prison Which is to set your jailer free But then, it's just another bunch of pretty words That stand between the sailor and the sea So forgive me, though I know you newer will Battered by your pride And so I'm locked again within these castle walls And you freeze alone outside
CHORUS

- 6. That voice agaiп
I hear that voice again I hear that voice again
Seems so simple now Now that sky is clear Maybe the road was tough But at last we're here I've nothing to hide from you Nothing to explain Just this vision of broken wind And the raven cries in pain
I hear that voice again I hear that voice again
If darkness surrounds you I'll be the fire To guard your sleep If there's nothing to stand on I will lay myself beneath your feet I will show the world to you And this will have no stain Just hold me now Hold me close Don't let me go But close your eyes And look away
I hear that voice again
