Lightning In A Twilight Hour

Every Flame a Sunset

In every wave another name

The sea commemorates

Another lost light contained

In these whispers for the late

 

A thousand journeys made alone

Scared and isolated

Ambushed having just begun

Young hearts in bodies failing

 

Candles flicker

On a silent dance-floor

Every flame a sunset

A closing door

 

Candles flicker

On a silent dance-floor

Every flame a sunset

A closing door

 

In the centre of everything

For yesterday and tomorrow

In the centre with a right to be

For the missing and those to follow

 

In every wave another name

The foaming of the breaker

Another lost light contained

The sea here just remembers

 

Candles flicker

On a silent dance-floor

Every flame a sunset

A closing door

 

Candles flicker

On a silent dance-floor

Every flame a sunset

A closing door

 

From Trafalgar Square to Heaven

A night caressed procession

Procession

In every wave another name

In every wave another name

 

A solemn church is

Housed in the arches

For one night only

Still and sacred

 

A solemn church is

Housed in the arches

For one night only

Still and sacred

 

Candles flicker

On a silent dance-floor

Every flame a sunset

A closing door

 

Candles flicker

On a silent dance-floor

Every flame a sunset

A closing door

 

A closing door

A closing door

A closing door

A closing door
