Mick Karn - Dreams Of Reason Produce Monsters

Buoy

Underneath a burning sun
There's always work to be done
We take much more than we care to give away


You'll be the moth, I'm the flame
I'll bless you and keep you safe and sound
Until sunrise comes around again


I'm like a mountain made of stone
I'm like a new day dawning
I'll be here every morning, close to you


We'll sail on a river, way out to the Baltic sea
Love will keep us together
And the tide will draw you close to me
(Never words so true, never words so wise)
Love will keep us together
'Cause there's more to this than meets the eye

I burn a candle in your place
I picture the passions on your face
Feelings that rise on a wave and fall away

All the pleasures have returned
All of the lessons I should have learned
Return again to light, for us to see

You're like a map of buried gold
I search for treasures in your soul
And when I'm gone, you'll know I will come back to you

We'll sail on a river, way down to the salty sea
Love will keep us together
And the tide will draw you close to me
(Never words so true, never words so wise)
Love will keep us together
'Cause there's more to this than meets the eye

I'm like a mountain made of stone
I'm like a new day dawning
I'll be here every morning, close to you

Buoy

When Love Walks In

There's something in the air
It's never felt like this before
A turning of the tide
A slamming of both the doors

I find myself a quiet place that no one's ever seen
A blazing sun will shine upon the road ahead of me
When love walks in

I see it in their eyes
The flames to burn the final straw
The heathen struck the match and lit the fire
A wish fulfilled and nothing more

Why take me now there's nothing more
Just hold me close and say good-bye
There'll be tomorrow's given time
Just close your eyes and leave this behind
Then love walks in
Like waves of golden sand
heavenly floating seas
The power in their hands, bring mountains to their knees
