Autumn Sea Lyrics

Robyn Hitchcock Autumn Sea

Somewhere in the autumn sea
The kind of love you are to me I stole you
>From a very special friend
So the friendship had to end and how
You can't kill relationships
Watch them drown like sinking ships around you
But to live is to betray
Every second, every day-Oh wow
Here comes the now
Soomewhere in the autumn air
I can smell you everywhere beside me
Though your face has disappeared
Finally I know I cared for you
As the leaf falls in the sea
Slips the sand of memory inside me
Rows of lights flash off and on
Finally I see you've gone
It's true
What can I do?
Somewhere in the autumn sky
Cross my heart and swear to die
I chose you
Trails burning everywhere
Sulphur fingers in the air
I scream
Brambles swarm around my fence
Everything in deep suspense
I froze you out
But it's your point of view
I am just somebody who has been
Into your dream
