Elysian Fields

Lyrics to When



When I'm drifting in my dream I love you



When I wake and nothing's what it seems I love you



When The final midnight's poised to stroke I love you



And I let the looking glasses Grow



When All of the faces have been drawn I love you



When Your king is come and bought my barn I love you



When You are asleep and so defenceless I love you



When This wicked world Is turned against us



Even though We didn't kiss goodbye I love you



When There are no tears in me to cry I love you



When The willow's weeping With desire



When The feathers caught in distant planet Catches fire (fire)



Tear up the sky Haunted by windows



Those are the eyes Always sitting never singing souls are staring Slowly Lonely



When They've got our names down on a list I love you



When I am recalling our first kiss I love you



When You are distracted and remote I love you



When There is no voice left in My throat



When The rains have spilled from the sky I love you



When The thirsty riverbeds are dry I love you



Though You never asked me to be Yours



Running Wild and restless bones are crushed On the shore



Tear out the sky Crowded by windows Those are the eyes Always searching never sleeping souls are silent Slowly Lonely



When You are a million miles away I love you



When We've dropped our lines from this mad play I love you



Though Our longest battle is not won I love you



When The stage is dark The people gone



When My soul no longer Takes its form



And You hear me singing In the storm
