lyrics

Nevergone

Oh what do I have to do now sister,
Another time around the wheel.
Oh where can I fly now mother,
Another time around the wheel.
The links in this chain still bind me tight
The night moves slow the night moves fast.
First watch has ended, the second just begun,
The night moves slow the night moves fast.

Weep silently with me child,
For I can find no peace.
The race is only half run now,
I can find no peace.
Step slowly with me sister,
For there is no place we can rest.
This hill climbs on for miles now,
There is no place we can rest.

I’ll carry you on my back brother,
My legs still remain strong.
On our fathers’ land we will lay us down,
My legs still remain strong.
We’ll bathe in the rivers we waded in when young,
And clover honey will we sip.
We’ll annoint our children with scented oil,
And clover honey will we sip.

Look into my eyes child:
What you see is nevergone.
The footprints we now leave behind:
What you see is nevergone.
The poetry we together create:
What you see is nevergone.
The light that shines at midnight’s break:
What you see is nevergone.

lovers touching
a blind old woman
a potter making pots
lovers touching
a monkey picking fruit
a man on a journey
a many-windowed house
lovers touching
arrows piercing eyes
eating and drinking
a girl picking fruit
lovers touching
a pregnant woman
delivering a child
a corpse being carried away
lovers touching
