I
can't see you Summer
princess, midnight maiden
When I first saw you I just breathed
Into your
smile my past went fadin'
Inside your voice, my mind was sheathed
In lost
lagoon, we waited, wadin'
Along the streets we went paradin'
Never looking
back to where we'd been Autumn
temptress, sundown angel
Inside your blood you aren't so young
I came to
you a loving vandal
And heard your heart and touched your tongue
Day became
a lighted candle
Sky fell down beneath your sandal
In your eye I began to
spin Winter
harlot, moontime lover
I can't speak when I feel this way
Don't keep your
feelings undercover
Tell me what you want today
Don't leave me in the air
to hover
Sing it out don't make me suffer
Don't be ashamed love is no sin Springtime
woman, sunrise girl
I am hiding behind the sea
Trick or treat, the Hallowe'en
world
Hide and seek but you can't catch me
I won't chase you until you hurl
Your
wing to me, and make me twirl
You're alive underneath my skin Tim Buckley/Larry Beckett
