Winter Comes Summer

She was mediterranean brown
In the halflight
In the sunlight would i ever know
And you are lost in thought as i follow
The ghost of your cigarette
And jump train singing past your eyes
And i can taste you from here
Over where the window where the light is
And tonight we'll be lit by april storms
And the flickering static from the silent tv
In the corner of this room
Sepia days in bloom, wintercomessummer
Close your eyes in prayer, full brown
Sugarlips and we are in a bar
Visualise our veins transparent in the
Half light a cargo of alcohol and amphetamine
Catching up like a diseased broken steamtrain
Wintercomessummer
Above ourselves looking down, a glittering tinseltown
Those buses full of half lives, the lovers cars
At traffic lights, adultery, sapphic tendancies
Bored lovers on a saturday, virgins on the verge
Of disappearing, the oriental family in
Cantonese arguing, wintercomessummer
We'll fall together through dusk until morning
Autumn was a sweet lay but it's gorgeous
Brother's dawning... wintercomessummer...
La, la la la, la la la, la la la la la la,.....
