From the recording New Album: By the River's Blue
Lyrics
THE ARROW
At first sight
we did not fall (through the dizzying air)
I saw you there
if there was a spark
it was mired
in our own darkness
A summer solstice party
friends of friends (mingling on a lawn)
We said I know not what
but there we were, and something was revealed
Now I see angel’s wings
through holes in cloud, into the blue
spreading wide and free
When we met again
You spoke of listlessness (need for a lowered dose)
I of pain
in every step
years of idleness
We’re a couple now
Every moment’s ours
Was that a Cupid’s arrow
And now I’m sure it is
Now I see angel’s wings
through holes in cloud, into the blue
sailing wide and free
Angel’s wings
through holes in cloud, into the blue
sailing wide and free
Angel’s wings
o-o-oh angel’s wings, o-o-oh angel’s wings
sailing wide and free
