Firebrothers Lyrics - This Mortal Coil

In the valley, where the moons and lovers play 

Lived two children who were born on Saturday 

One was dark, one was fair 

Fathered by the dog, mothered by the pig 

Stranger children you have never seen 

Brothers of the forest and the sea 

One was land, one was air 

And they kept the fires burning 

In a golden vessel and a silver vase 

Kept them burning in a strange enchanted place 

Kept them burning to the sky 

For they knew someday, the sun will die
