Robyn Hitchcock - Recalling the Truth lyrics

Recalling the truth The way that it seems The way it falls Between you and your dreams The way you said yes As you followed me in You've been gone so long Recalling the truth Now what could that mean? The truth can just change Like the tide on the sea When the river runs out And the mountain grows still You've been gone so long A kiss on the stair A heartbeat embrace A kiss in the morning On the side of your face Recalling the truth The window of bliss The opens just once For the price of a kiss If the price is too high Then to pay is a sin You've been gone so long You hide from yourself But it's tracking you down It was me that was lost And it's you that I found Recalling the truth Whatever that was It doesn't last long Whatever does? The men always end Where the women begin You've been gone so long You've been gone so long You've been gone
