Crescent Lyrics - Singles - Brendan Perry

The stars you see in the night sky 

Have been dead for centuries 

Starlight creates the illusion 

Of life for all these years 

Now I no longer trust these eyes of mine 

The heart must speak to me 

In tongues of forgotten voices 

In ancient harmonies 

So that I can see 

Heavens are merely illusions 

When you build them high in the sky 

And hell is the final solution 

For those who have no faith in this life 

They are blinded by lies 

Here in the garden, fountain of life 

Here in the garden, arcane delights 

Are born from the womb 

Down here the seed will rise 

From dark earth to the light 

To kiss the sun again 

She brings me flowers 

To ease the pain 

She brings me light 

Where only darkness reigns 

And the more I see 

The more life means to me 

And the way you love the wild earthly dream 

She sings her song for you and me 

I don't care what lies beyond this world 

All I really care about is you 

For Mother Nature's gifts of life have made 

Have made this world a paradise for you and I
