lyrics

I see an orange grove
Lush and green
A house in the clearing
From the 19th century
A dark-haired woman
Children three
Totally distant
But all known intimately
By me . . .

I see an old man
Boy on his knee
Full of the hubris
I mistook for bravery

Ten years have gone by
Since all the sunlight
Drained into something
Buried somewhere underground

It comes alive again
It comes alive again
Don’t want to remember
It comes alive again

I never dreamed I’d see you again
I see you everywhere that I turn

Ten years have gone by
Since all the sunlight
Drained underground

It comes alive again

Found the X the marks the wretched heart’s burial ground
And in your buried treasure, expecting pound for pound
To rejoice in what I found
Some attempt to make it right
Now ten years have gone into something,
Into something buried underground

Imagine my surprise
Imagine my surprise

That nothing was saved
No mention was made
No gesture was paid
And no bond remains

Nothing remains . . .
