lyrics

The Kiss of Spirit and Flesh

I’ve got something here…
Something worse than fear,
And it aches and it breaks,
And yearns for life…

With such livid eyes,
Love has rent the skies,
And though such passion’s afire,
My god-light yearns.

If my fall from grace, is to touch your face,
Deny my island will
With such a caress;
With the stars as near,
I’ll overcome my fear,
And fall…fall,
To those Arician vales.

From my wildwood of heart,
Sweet solitudes apart,
The Muse has danced my blood;
From a deep lonely land,
To suddenly take your hand,
Casts me between the worlds…

In those early hours,
When the poetry flowers,
As though a lifetime of silence
Has come to this…
In those early hours,
Deep in midnight’s bowers,
Comes a touch…
The ghost of your flesh…vivid eyes…

From across the miles,
Wreathed in glowing smiles,
It warms, and dazzles,
And dazzles and dazzles…
A gift to enrapture the flesh.

Mesmerised, I my passions awake,
The wind may scatter my thoughts to the brake,
Where night is lost to dream!
To have danced,
To have lived and loved,
Is, in this dew-drop life,
A god-song, a play,
With laughter that beckons and screams!

Soft, sweet flower, let me enter…
Every part of you, your secrets, your dreams…
Flesh and spirit intertwined,
Wild oak and ivy, moon-struck and loved…

As with previous releases this is a solid album from start to finish which continues the storyline, themes and signatures perfectly. 'Enigma' and 'Another Same' are on par with or superior to many commercial offerings by established prog artists. The Waters, Wilson and Hayward influences shine through once more but I also hear song writing very much in the style of Difford and Tilbrook, 'Trough of War' & 'Another Same' probably being the best examples. These chaps are the real deal! rex-the-younger
