lyrics

Such a long time ago
A name, a place, a face - someone you should know?
But your mind's getting slow
And you know as well as me that it's starting to show
And you're losing your glow - the sparkle in your eye
And the people you know say you reap what you sow

You're surprised you're still here
But no-one's quite as mystified as I
And the edge ever near
The land that separates the sea from sky
It will all disappear
At times the bells beneath the waves will toll
When the storms gather near

All life you have left in you, holding on by a thread
Came from sand that has drifted down long shores
Exposing the dead

I imagine you home
An old timbered place, a space you call your own
Down by the shore
With a broken dog, as broken as you are
Now the tide's getting low
The naked sands reveal what lay below
And you know that they know

All life you have left in you, holding on by a thread
Came from sands that have drifted down long shores
A gift from the dead

All you have that is dear to you, detritus accrued
All of this will soon fall into the sea
When Ravenspurn's renewed
