lyrics

Your glance catches me from my imagination
You are near me and now I am here too
Without a waiver you grant me your approval
All I hear is silence – I see You
Hardly a smile, a subtle yes, unflinching grace
Sudden susurrus of dissipating hiss
The whine declines and is replaced by sonic splendour
Our combined creativity created this

Listen to your quiet - you might understand
Comprehensible restrained from your demand
Cannot be exhausted - bigger than you know
Present open arms so the present can be shown

A choreography of slight improvisation
An implied glance and we're acknowledged and known
Spinning spirals upright without drawing attention
Meanwhile ghosts are hosting others in their homes
A precedent of obsolescent journal entries
Nourishment of the collective temperature
Revolving, evolving, navigating and solving
An augenblick that I am sure

Listen to your quiet and you might understand
Comprehensible restrained from your demand
Cannot be exhausted, bigger than you know
Present open arms so the present can be shown

That moment I look up and time is paused
Frame of instant instance and my mind applauds
Making real the abstract framework of a plan
Form follows function follows form thus we withstand
What is the formula so my voice does not sound strained
Are these the answers to the test held in my brain
Asking the vortex as my knowledge swirls with tease
Should I say thank you, I am sorry or just please, please, please

Something cannot be grasped so you cannot steal
It's bestowed and granted – that is the reveal
Must agree to show your wounds so they can heal
The cards you hold must correspond with the deal
