That Ancient Eclipse

from Johanna, Johanna by Ian Taylor

/

lyrics

I had a dream, a dream or two
before my coffee in the morning dew.
Light fills up my empty room
and everything leads back to you.
I choke on your ghost with every season
I call your name almost every evening.
What can I do? it's all so uneven
and everyone is disappearing.

And I'm fine, fine by a lie I guess.
I'll be alright if alright is death.
Wasting my time
chasing that ancient eclipse.

I saw your face beneath the sky in the fall
chasing the children on the sidewalk.
When the rain came down they all ran off
leaving just you and I walking along.
The leafless trees are like sculptures to me
painted and plastered on the skies I roam beneath.
Cause now I'm gone chasing my memory.
Is everything as lonely as it seems?

And I'm fine, fine by a lie I guess.
I'll be alright if alright is death.
Wasting my time
chasing that ancient eclipse.
