The Anchorites - Honey Song

Oh sweet summer day
The June bugs make their way
To permeate
Some lost empty vase
The orchids flew away
Mountains stare so stately into space
When I see your face
I am made awake
While the sunlight simmers
Quietly on the lake
I won't mourn today
If you'd let me stay
And as I grasp your hand it melts to honey
And as you walk away your glitter shape is taking place
As you fade away
Now I think I find
Somewhere in my mind
A golden sound
Slightly out of time
If it rings aloud
Promise that you'll meet me safe and sound
I don't see your face
But you won't go away
And we're both sinking
Quietly in the lake
Solemnly, we drown
Holding hands together we go down
And as I grasp your hand it melts to honey
And as you walk away your glitter shape is taking place
As you fade away
As you fade away
Slowly, I can see you
Fading dearly into nothing,
nothing
The sun's beneath the lake
And oh for goodness sake
I still miss you
More and more each day
What else can I say
What else can I say
I won't mourn today
The orchids flew away
