I Was Brought To My Senses

Alone with my thoughts this evening

I walked on the banks of Tyne

I wondered how I could win you

Or if I could make you mine

Or if I could make you mine

The wind it was so insistent

With tales of a stormy south

But when I spied two birds in a sycamore tree

There came a dryness in my mouth

Came a dryness in my mouth

For then without rhyme or reason

The two birds did rise up to fly

And where the two birds were flying

I swear I saw you and I

I swear I saw you and I

我是山林的云雾，无形无踪......

I walked out this morning

It was like a veil had been removed from before my eyes

For the first time I saw the work of heaven

In the line where the hills had been married to the sky

And all around me every blade of singing grass

Was calling out your name and that our love would always last

And inside every turning leaf

Is the pattern of an older tree

The shape of our future

The shape of all our history

And out of the confusion

Where the river meets the sea

Came things I'd never seen

Things I'd never seen

I was brought to my senses

I was blind but now that I can see

Every signpost in nature

Said you belong to me

I know it's true

It's written in a sky as blue

As blue as your eyes,as blue as your eyes

If nature's red in tooth and claw

Like winter's freeze and summer's thaw

The wounds she gave me

Were the wounds that would heal me

And we'd be like the moon and sun

And when our courtly dance had run

Its course across the sky

Then together we would lie

And out of the confusion

Where the river meets the sea

Something new would arrive

Something better would arrive

I was brought to my senses

I was blind but now that I can see

Every signpost in nature

Said you belong to me
