Silver Waterfalls Songtext
von Siouxsie and the Banshees

Clouds roll by overhead
Like giant rays coast a dried up ocean bed
Dancing winds blow a parody
Of swirling currents in a long forgotten sea

Shimmer, glimmer, shimmer on me, oh
The sparkling souls of dreaming children call
Shimmer, glimmer, shimmer on me, oh
In streets that shine like silver waterfalls

In your eyes in the skies
In the blood burning Indian sunrise
Shimmer on me


We were here long ago
And now we roam like ghostly buffalo
First two lies then two tears
Subtle curves, now glistening souvenirs

Shimmer, glimmer, shimmer on me, oh
The sparkling souls of dreaming children call
Shimmer, glimmer, shimmer on me, oh
In streets that shine like silver waterfalls

In your eyes in the skies
In the blood burning Indian sunrise
In sleep we grow

In your eyes in the skies
In the blood burning Indian sunrise
Awake and glow

Shivering in silver waterfalls
Anoint me in silver waterfalls
