Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Give me your eyes that I might see
The blind man kissing my hands
The sun is humming, my head turns to dust
As he plays on his knees
(As he plays on his knees)
[Verse 2]
And the sand and the sea grows
I close my eyes
Move slowly through drowning waves
Going away on a strange day
[Verse 3]
And I laugh as I drift in the wind
Blind dancing on a beach of stone
Cherish the faces as they wait for the end
Sudden hush across the water
And we're here again
[Verse 4]
And the sand and the sea grows
I close my eyes
Move slowly through drowning waves
Going away on a strange day
[Verse 5]
My head falls back and the walls crash down
And the sky and the impossible explode
Held for one moment, I remember a song
An impression of sound
Then everything is gone forever
[Verse 6]
(A strange day)
(A strange day)
