richard dawson & circle - cooksonia lyrics
[verse 1: richard dawson]
i’ve given the better part of my days
to the consideration of small things
gingerly went unpicking the seams
of a long dried+up stream (ya+ho, ya+ho, ya+ho)
dwelling at length inside the mad waltz
of spores on a gust of the mind’s hair
and when i dream i really go
to that ocean of stone (ya+ho, ya+ho, ya+ho)
[chorus: richard dawson]
in the shadowed shallows our spirit wells
move closer, move closer
on the radio i hear the blue hills
move closer, here and there
[verse 2: richard dawson]
when i was young, thе better part of my days
werе spent to the nursing of my mum
i found my pleasure whenever i could
in tennis and piano (ya+ho, ya+ho, ya+ho)
and though we were half+broke
i managed to go
to study at the university of melbourne
melbourne
[chorus: richard dawson]
in the shadowed shallows our spirit wells
move closer, move closer
on the radio i hear the blue hills
move closer, here and there
[verse 3: richard dawson]
a week at sea, the better part of my days
holed up in the cabin lost in boundless study
i’m on my way to the uk
with ethel mclennan (ya+ho, ya+ho, ya+ho)
unfortunately the fungal cultures we brought with us
have started to degrade
[outro: richard dawson]
there are no birds
no bushes or trees
no beasts nor people
only this single stem
