The Island
J.C. Munro / E Luker / P Titchener / D Holdernesse / K Kraus
Winter
dwells in darkling pools
Sunless grey the twilight cools
Fading words on frosted panes
Telling tales of distant rains
Endless
days, strangers' smiles
Familiar dreams the night beguiles
As the seasons slip away
Cloudless gold to sunless grey
Seasons
turn as ever will,
Ocean shifting, island still
Light and shadow fade and burn
The bitter and the sweet in turn
Sunset
colours distant hills
Shadow, twilight's glow distills
Turn to see the island fade
Turn again, the parting made
Seasons
turn as ever will,
Ocean shifting, island still
Light and shadow fade and burn
The bitter and the sweet in turn
Winter
dwells in darkling pools
Sunless grey the twilight cools
Fading words on frosted panes
Telling tales of distant rains
