The Boon Songtext

The Boon Songtext
I can see you
I can see through walls
Across great lands
Where some of you have gone
Into the earth
Or undersea
Where some found gold
And some found bones
I can see you
Are you here today?
You, you, wonder about those feelings
Are they still here today?
You, you, ever think about the tracks of the train
That led to the sea?
And the moon in June knows life
Those old cartoons
Those old cartoons
And the smoke, it hung in the room
I′ve waited a lifetime
To see the sun, oh
Long before the moon died
I knew it well
And it would mean the world now
If you would come 'round
We could watch the sundown
We could watch it come down
Unless time
In the room
By the old dead door and the chain
The tracing lawnmower brings
In the space of a sound
In the world spinning round
And the day′s already found
In those days
Is it me? (In this thing, I wonder?)
Is it me? (Oh, this sting I've missed)
Is it me? (How they sting, I wonder?)
The smoke clings to the dune
I've waited for a lifetime
To see the sundown
I′ve watched a memory
I knew it well
Oh, oh, oh
It would mean the world to me
If you would come, come ′round
And we could watch, we could watch the sun come down
We could watch it come down one last time
One last time
One last time
One last time
I can see through walls
Across great lands
Where some of you have gone
Into the earth
Or undersea
Where some found gold
And some found bones
I can see you
Are you here today?
You, you, wonder about those feelings
Are they still here today?
You, you, ever think about the tracks of the train
That led to the sea?
And the moon in June knows life
Those old cartoons
Those old cartoons
And the smoke, it hung in the room
I′ve waited a lifetime
To see the sun, oh
Long before the moon died
I knew it well
And it would mean the world now
If you would come 'round
We could watch the sundown
We could watch it come down
Unless time
In the room
By the old dead door and the chain
The tracing lawnmower brings
In the space of a sound
In the world spinning round
And the day′s already found
In those days
Is it me? (In this thing, I wonder?)
Is it me? (Oh, this sting I've missed)
Is it me? (How they sting, I wonder?)
The smoke clings to the dune
I've waited for a lifetime
To see the sundown
I′ve watched a memory
I knew it well
Oh, oh, oh
It would mean the world to me
If you would come, come ′round
And we could watch, we could watch the sun come down
We could watch it come down one last time
One last time
One last time
One last time
