Lyrics:


I live where mud meets river 
Silt green, cloven feet 

A maid of rarest beauty
Old crone, monstrous mein

The water weighs me down
Like the love I hold for this heard of cattle
Pile of stones

To them I have rooted my oath
Lonely vigil, reeds for bones

The gloaming brings my weary wail
To the darkling hills I sing my tale

Sing the day that I caught sight
Of a glistening bird all crowned with light

How'd you come here? I enquired
Said he tracked the fading light 

How d'you come to this brown isle?
Flying from a monstrous tide

Born aloft by his contempt
For those who'd steal my golden eggs 

Come to earth and sit by me
Enjoy the moss-grown shiv'ring peace

Doubt creeps in and rots my core

Alas I can't, the bird he said
For to land would surely mean my death 

Or the rain would change me from roc to rook
And then who would strain their necks to look

Absence makes the heart mythologise 


Absence Makes The Heart Mythologise
