With history, your bluest grace
|
Falls apart, cascading down
|
Speak to me of beautiful hate
|
Of island chains swept with the tide
|
Tragedy ripening on
|
The coral leis of a conquering king
|
|
They're swept away
|
Oh, but not lost
|
|
Beneath the waves of trembling stars
|
The road winds towards
|
The windward side
|
My soul is saved by these city lights
|
My face is framed by the blanket of night
|
|
They're swept away
|
Oh, but not lost
|
|
Was I too proud to sat, or to wish for
|
Words that I knew were forbidden?
|
Because I don't want to know
|
I didn't want to see what I saw
|
When I looked in the distance
|
|
They're swept away
|
Oh, but not lost
|
