Caethua – In the Long Afternoon

Caethua – In the Long Afternoon Lyrics

Artist: Caethua
Song: In the Long Afternoon

In the first clouds of snow
Day is done before it’s ever begun
The light of the river frozen again
Time forgets a place like this

In the long afternoon of the earth
I come I go with the long afternoon
The wind picks us up and takes the tide away
Oh your face against the grey

Cracked and huge the houses sway
Worn away the boats through the mist
Carry on as if fighting to survive
And you came and went in the long afternoon of the earth

The sun is now gone how cold I’ve become
And you’ve come and gone with the long afternoon
The tide is high and so it is
Cold alive, rotten alive

I can feel my heart up in my throat
If I opened my mouth it might fall out
To the gulls or any man walking around
I come, I go, I recede

But I won’t leave for good
Until my work is done
