The Visit (Bonus Track)

When they said that you were beautiful, I said it there and then

I laid aside all resistance, forgot to say amen

And when you raised your hands to me, a glow therein I saw

A baby of the morning was sleeping nature's law

And it begins to seem like summer's almost gone

Like the wind that blows the leaves out on the lawn

I determined that I loved you; you determined I am ‘he’

Determined both together, we meet our company

And the feathers of the wild dove floating to the ground

Gliding through the branches, spinning slowly round

As we wait in the mountains for the song

That revives what's been between us all along

In Cannes there was absurdity

In Nice there was the shore

In Monaco there were casinos,

In Asia there was war

And the pipers were American

The peaches fresh with cream

People with vibrations

Just wild robots by some stream

And now they grasp imaginary straws

And shuffle through the sea with bright new claws

If what we know can save us, then it's time to make the try

Every time they try to make us servants of some lie

The children born of bodies in bald-with-pattern scheme

It's a funny, a funny world you live in, ‘til you learn that it's a dream

Sea serpents are rockage made of clay, explaining how we were yesterday

Still I said that you were beautiful, I said it there and then

I laid aside resistance; forgot to say amen

And when you raised your hands to me, a glow therein I see

The childhood of that beauty which belongs to you and me

And I realize that summer is never gone

Like the wind that blow the leaves out on the lawn

Out on the lawn, out on the lawn, on the lawn
