Wild Leaping

about

Ah you, ah you
You appear from out the mist
There you rise up before Fammera
Josephine
I have found you
This vow we made
I will dare
If you reach out

Ah you, ah you
Soar towards a mountain trail to the pines
Through the sleepy alleyways I slide
Beyond the phantom carousel
Every turn it finds our starry climb
The flickered light on hands entwined
As we descend, I see the footsteps on the needle floor
I count my steps I mouth my words I will say Have we been here?

“Don't leave there!” I cry
Somewhere in the dark night
This veil of this broken dream
Behind eyes of fantasy
As my senses break this cursed seam Are they lies of my heart?
I’m paralysed, paralysed, paralysed
As you, you rise up with the mist

Giuseppina, you start to fade
As I try to reach out to your light
The leafy bones steal the air
Bind your arms and strike me down
My broken wings they are torn
I couldn’t bare it when you cried
When you slipped away
But I won’t lose you
And somehow
Somehow, I hurl myself into the night's eye and embrace you through this haze into this rapture
We blaze against the shooting stars that swear to never, never, ever burn out Daydreams held the remnants of this sacred evening Darling! Giuseppina!
Break the minds that separate us
Wake up with me from this world unbound
Or remain
Oh, I have been reborn so many times before
Men who kill, painters, saviours, sailors
For I have walked these worlds and every, every bypath always leads to you Only you
Here in Selvacava
Playing around with you, you, you, you, you
You’re not alone, not alone
Don't, don't let this go
Don’t let this go
Don’t fade away
Don’t fade away
Don't, don't make it go away
Just let me in Just let me in Let me in!
Let me in!
Let me in!
Let me in!
Let me in!

Tonight
Crashed down by the sea
I grab you by the soles of your feet
Caress your face your body’s so weak
And somehow, I’ll defy the eyes of the sun
Our moonlit gaze
And I will never, never, never, never, never, never let you go! Are you close?
Are you there with me?
Please stay here
I’m scared
It's all gone
Don't let me go
I'm paralysed
