The Half-Remarkable Question (2010 Remaster) - The Incredible String Band

Question - The Incredible String Band

Who moved the black castle

Who moved the white queen

When Gimmel and Daleth

Where standing between

Out of the evening growing a veil

Pining for the pine woods

That ached for the sail

There's something forgotten

I want you to know

The freckles of rain are telling me so

O it's the old forgotten question

What is that we are part of

What is it that we are

And an elephant madness

Has covered the sun

The judge and the juries

They play for the fun

They've torn up the roses

And washed all the soap

And the martyr who marries

Them dares not elope

O it's the never realised question

What is that we are part of

What is it that we are

O long O long e're yet my eyes

Braved the gates enormous fire

And the body folded 'round me

And the person in me grew

The flower and it's petal

The root and it's grasp

The earth and it's bigness

The breath and it's gasp

The mind and it's motion

The foot and it's move

The life and it's pattern

The heart and it's love

O it's the half-remarkable question

What is that we are part of

What is it that we are
