lyrics

ZERO

let's go down to the river
watch the stars all flicker on
throw our secrets into the water
let em be carried away
time will do what it always does
it'll run through yer fingers
measure life in years but remember
zero doesn't exist

now is almost
now is always
now is gone
now is nearly
now is surely
now is not
now is high-time
now is high-tide

let's go down to the river
see the sky fade from azure
silhouettes on the dim horizon
the power of the unseen guiding human endeavour
our senses to exchange vows
water murmurs the earth's agreement
zero runs in between

now is almost
now is always
now is gone
now is nearly
now is surely
now is not
now is high-time
now is high-tide

falling leaves dance about us
distant trains make future plans
your hands speak of an innocent heart
your eyes another man
a soft breeze chinese whispers
we have been here all our lives
getting drunk on the revelation
love is seeing stars

now is almost
now is always
now is gone
now is nearly
now is surely
now is not
now is high-time
now is high-tide

almost
always
gone
nearly
surely
not
high-time
high-tide
here

now is here
now is here
now is here
now is here
now is here
