Jethro Tull - Moths Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • The leaded window opened
  • To move the dancing candle flame
  • And the first moths of summer
  • Suicidal came.
  • And a new breeze chattered
  • In its may-bud tenderness ---
  • Sending water-lillies sailing
  • As she turned to get undressed.
  • And the long night awakened
  • And we soared on powdered wings ---
  • Circling our tomorrows
  • In the wary month of spring.
  • Chasing shadows slipping
  • In a magic lantern slide ---
  • Creatures of the candle
  • On a night-light-ride.
  • Dipping and weaving --- flutter
  • Through the golden needles eye
  • In our haystack madness. butterfly-stroking
  • On a spring-tide high.
  • Lifes too long (as the lemming said)
  • As the candle burned and the moths were wed.
  • And well all burn together as the wick grows higher ---
  • Before the candles dead.
  • The leaded window opened
  • To move the dancing candle flame.
  • And the first moths of summer
  • Suicidal came
  • To join in the worship
  • Of the light that never dies
  • In a moments reflection
  • Of two moths spinning in her eyes.
