lyrics

The idea of 'just beyond'
We put an X in the distance past the post
But it followed... a shimmering, tantalising ghost

The promise of 'just beyond' .
The ancient beams that groaned and leaned in with us
You think I'm joking - that magic is a metaphor?
Perhaps my downfall...

The chain of unmet need,
The experiential greed.
It's so obvious really -
you can't give what you don't have

The rush of love 'beyond'
the full bodied taste of urgency.
Now you go find your footing,
but remember the rocks have eyes

What was this?
Just a glimpse, a glitch?
Opening everything everywhere all at once,
Delicate - two doves against Turner skies

The faith in 'just beyond'...
The sacred places ventured alone.
But no matter:
we fasten the pieces together with gold.
