Now the raging of the forest fires end
And all the mammals fled
I smell in the charred darkness
A little green, a little red

When you sing your song
Your voice washed over the sea
Glacial land of
Beautiful blue light came o'er me
Came o'er me

Drink deep, my love
For the water is gasping for your mouth
Gasping for your mouth
Drink deep, my love
For the water is gasping for your mouth

I remember in the burning
A secret magic expense
A flame universe of bright gold and white
I treasured the whole fest
But it was too hard to touch
I flew out with the cinders in a mighty black rush

Drink deep, my love
For the water is gasping for your mouth
Gasping for your mouth
Drink deep, my love
For the water is gasping for your mouth

And the fire closed his eyes
Tipped his flame hat and slipped through the dire rye
We wandered romantic
We scattered dark branches
With the singing green stars as our guide
With the singing green stars as our guide

Drink deep, my love
For the water is gasping for your mouth
Gasping for your mouth
Drink deep, my love
For the water is gasping for your mouth (x2)

Drink deep, it's just a taste,
and it might not come this way again
I believe in moments, transparent moments,
moments in grace
when you've got to stake your faith

Why do I confine,
when all I want is release?

It moves outside you, it stays inside you,
and its not something that I could prove,
or could chose, to be moved.
Yes its a promise, and its a threat,
and its not something that I'll let you forget,
not just yet, not just yet.

Why do I chase
when all I want is near?

If its not the rule then its always the case,
good intentions get fractured,
good intentions get replaced.
So close to reach but so hard to hold,
the only chance you get is past your control,
it's so hard, it's so hard.

Drink deep, its just a taste
and it might not come this way again
Time to surrender, sweet surrender
of all things in time, all things one place,
one place.
