Tremaine you settle like a bird
Watching you my life begins
Tremaine the steady currents curl
Clear blue and silver skinned.
Uncertain scenes come back to me...
Staring out from the wooden porch
Dusk falls
The west horizon burns
From the shallow corn.
Tremaine your silent figure soars
Crucifixed against the sun
Tremaine your twisted figure turns
Watching you upon the wind.
Uncertain scenes come back to me...
Staring down past the whitened walls
Dust roars
The cafe lights that blur
And the market hall.
Tremaine the silence seems to roar
From the pool as you descend
Untamed and magic was the world
Watching you my life begins.
Uncertain scenes come back to me...
Driving round in your battered car
Backyards
Where silhouettes would merge
Beneath the tragic stars.
Uncertain scenes come back to me
