I can feel the turning of the tides
Pulling away the night
Like a sheet from over me
In summer time
I dissolve to a beach
And everywhere seems to be
Just a flicker on a silent screen
Because I
I can`t stay long
Let the sky roll on
Just a flicker and the crowd moves on
In winter
Overcoats close in
And the snow tastes of tin
On the steps of any station
I`d like to glide in the long green light
Of a July afternoon
Sliding down a vague conversation
Because I
I can`t stay long
When the moment comes
Just a glance and the glance is gone
Watch closely
As a man with a hat
And a girl with a map
Synchronise with the track
And they go away
I need to drift through all the walls
And let the scenery dissolve
Into some other life
Because I
I can`t stay long
Let the sky roll on
Just a glance and the glance is gone
I
I can`t stay long
When the right time comes
I`ll dissolve
