Within The Presence Of Absence Lyrics - My Dying Bride

Your eyes speak more than 

More than your lips 

More than your mouth 

Bare were your summer 

Shoulders and arms 

And slender neck 

She rose up beautiful before me 

And bare she walks the morning anew 

It is the wound she gave me 

Through my heart, drives her rain 

Her face under the sky is full of golden sun 

I drew her through the midnight sky on iron leaves 

There is no name for you 

You fed me wine on a tender voyage 

Within your silk, I love to forget 

I step around you softly 

Drown away your little hatreds 

Your pain is just a memory 

As your summer fruit decays 

My fire for you stays 

Your body is a legend 

I launched into her as the earth began to die 

It is within her, my name is now known 

The hand draws slowly back to the poor art of my eye 

These are not fingers I have 

Put off your air of tragedy 

The art of light on your body 

Falls apart in the moonlight 

Your eyes speak more than 

More than you lips 

More than your mouth 

Bare were your summer 

Shoulders and arms 

And slender neck
