lyrics
They came and they laid a gold train around me
And I stayed like iron scrap down by the foundry
Later that season
they redrew the boundary
Were they ever mine?
Were they ever mine?
East end, a playground, a bleak winter afternoon
He said I speed like a greyhound, chasing my red balloon
Evening…the fog came,
maybe I gave up much too soon
But was it ever mine?
Was it ever mine?
Some say the oldest passion play is written from the end
Every first greeting is “goodbye, again”
And in the garden scene off-stage,
they meet as two old friends,
slowly diluting in the frozen rain:
“Oleander and Absinthe in Spain”
So he keeps his temper and I keep my body clean
He reads Ezekiel while I paint in grenadine
Though some things may never
be anything they ever seem
This is ever mine
This is ever mine
And I stayed like iron scrap down by the foundry
Later that season
they redrew the boundary
Were they ever mine?
Were they ever mine?
East end, a playground, a bleak winter afternoon
He said I speed like a greyhound, chasing my red balloon
Evening…the fog came,
maybe I gave up much too soon
But was it ever mine?
Was it ever mine?
Some say the oldest passion play is written from the end
Every first greeting is “goodbye, again”
And in the garden scene off-stage,
they meet as two old friends,
slowly diluting in the frozen rain:
“Oleander and Absinthe in Spain”
So he keeps his temper and I keep my body clean
He reads Ezekiel while I paint in grenadine
Though some things may never
be anything they ever seem
This is ever mine
This is ever mine
