Another Day - This Mortal Coil

Written by：Roy Harper

The kettle's on the sun has gone another day

She offers me Tibetan tea on a flower tray

She's at the door she wants to score

She really needs to say

I loved you a long time ago you know

Where the wind's own forget-me-nots blow

But I just couldn't let myself go

Not knowing what on earth there was to know

But I wish that I had 'cause I'm feeling so sad

That I never had one of your children

Across the room inside a tomb a chance has waxed and waned

The night is young why are we so hung up in each other's chains

I must take her

I must make her while the dove domains

And feel the juice run as she flies

Run my wings under her sighs

As the flames of eternity rise

To lick us with the first born lash of dawn

Oh really my dear I can't see what we fear

Standing here with ourselves in between us

And at the door we can't say more than just another day

And without a sound I turn around and walk away
