van der graaf generator – lost lyrics

(the dance in sand and sea)
so here we are or rather here am i
quite alone
i’m seeing things that were shared before
long ago
my memory stretches and i am dazed
you know i know
how good the time was and how i laughed
times have changed, now you’re far away
i can’t complain
i had all my chances and they slipped right through my hands
like so much sand
i know i’ll never dance like i used to
i’ll just wait til day breaks upon the land
and the sea
hoping that i can catch all of the
memories
then i must crawl off upon my way
all of me
listening hard for the final words
but there are none
the sunrise calls, i’ve lingered on
too close for comfort, and i don’t know quite why
i feel like crying
i know we’ll never dance like we used to
i look up, i’m almost blinded
by the warmth of what’s inside me
and the taste that’s in my soul
but i’m dead inside as i stand alone
(the dance in frost)
i wore my moods like different sets of clothes
but the right one was never around
and as you left i heard my body ring
and my mind began to howl
it was far too late to contemplate
the meaning of it all
you know that i need you
but somehow i don’t think you see my love at all
at some point i lost you
i don’t know quite how it was
our wonderland lay in a coat of white
chilling frost
i looked around and i found i was
truly lost
without your hand in mine i am dead
reality is unreal and games i’ve tried just aren’t the same
without your smile there’s nowhere to hide
and deep inside
i know i’ve never cried as i’m about to
if i could just frame the words
that would make your fire burn
all this water now around me
could be the love that should surround me
looking out through the tears that blind me
my heart bleeds that you may find me
or at least that i can forget and be numb
but i can’t stop, the words still come
i love you
