Starlings

I won't get tired, I won't get old
I won't forget, I won't grow cold...

Peace, girl
if it's really what you want
I'll furl the flags that I have brought
Back from the darkness and the rain,
Undone by sadness

Half insane
Half insane

Darling - the revolution's over
The dead are under clover
Starlings rule the sky
An introduced species
Taking over
There's nothing left to show her
And nothing left to try....

Some other time, some other place
Some other shore, some other's taste...
Door shut (It's almost time to go)
Deep cut (and we're the last to know)
No secret meaning's waiting here
That rootless feeling

It lasts for years
Lasts for years

[ Someone came and burned the garden
Salted earth and drained the fountain ]

Darling - the revolution's over
The dead are under clover and
Starlings rule the sky
An introduced species
Taking over
There's nothing left to show her
And nothing left to try
