Stems of Anise Songtext
von The Clientele

There are dark spokes
(Of light in the pool) let your hair hang down and close my eyes
But there is-
(No one there with you) let your hair hang down and close my eyes

It′s a beautiful night, Maria
It's a beautiful night
When you are here singing to me (it′s a beautiful night)
The kids on the street
The football fields

Felt like a swallow inside
Past the dying king tonight
Red leaves on the shore


Hey, Kathleen
(Over where the headland looms) let your hair hang down
I'll close my eyes (I will take you home)

It's a beautiful night, Maria
It′s a beautiful night
Those ships are sailing away
It′s a beautiful night (sailing away, sailing away)

Pick me up on Monday morning
Higher than the moon
Morning brittle as a glass
No one's looking through
No one′s looking through
No one's looking through
