The Free French. What are they saying there?

A Brief High, A Deep Sigh

a brief high
then a deep sigh
the death throes of all that I know
such a real sign, all mine
can't you break the spell?

though it's nailed down, it's unsound
a waste of effort, with jangling nerves of the worst kind
you know why it's better than saying goodbye
a brief high...

now recall the last fall
the crash of timber and visible traces of mistakes
oh please wait, and can't you show a little concern now?
you know how we both sing that familiar refrain
"won't you be mine" - but you'll find
it's better than saying goodbye - a deep sigh...

back to the songlist...





	how things are going what went on who we are where we're playing what things look like what things sound like what we're singing things people said you say hello places we go
