There's No Such Place

There is no such place, o yes I have seen it too

Just a little different from how you do,

A river winding blue among the dunes and a marble bed

A sun that doesn't set but settles.

There is no such place.

If I lower mine to yours would you kiss me on the face?

If you're looking for an unmarked place,

There is no such place -

Blasted in appearance and a composite of fearful minutes

Frozen in the waking instant



Longing, things I long for,

Peaceful nights, strangers at the door,

O come in, come in,

You've been here before.



There is no such place, so perhaps we have a reason

For our long and falling face,

Above all it would be warm but we would keep our heads all

Clear as Winter, storms would be a sight to make us shiver

But without the chill

Of thinking all is hither-thither -



Longing, Things I long for,

Peaceful nights, strangers at the door,

O come in, come through the door,

You've been here before,

You've been here before



There is no such place, o yes I have seen it too

Just a little different from how you do,

A house upon a hill with no windows

Just a can upon the sill

To catch your tears

To feed your garden.
