So Clear

So Clear - Pentangle

It was in the rainy season waiting for the train

Leaving in the afternoon all on your own again

Do you really understand it

Can you tell me why it is this way

Sad lady at her portmanteau

With no words left to say

Saving that it's only something that can happen any day

Too loose circus rider turn on your childish grin

Shine on through the long black night

Go ride the dawn again

Your eyes are stars that sweetly twinkle

Aureole around your head aflame

Sad story that you cannot tell

Where no one is to blame

And anyhow its only something sure to come down with the rain

Would i could hear your song so clear

The words could touch the air

And catch the moon's reflection in the colour of her hair

To ease this ache of loneliness and blind the facetious stare

Even now I do remember one thing more that is not told

Just a slightly twisted crystal heart to keep you from the cold

All up the coast along the highway

Nobody there will know your name

So strange how things should work out now

Yet still remain the same

And even so you know there's nothing that can ever really change
