Sagittarius Rising
(W Duncan & R Watson)
| Somewhere on the vast horizon |
| As far away as lights can shine |
| I see an end and a beginning |
| In some altered space and time |
| There's a world forever changing |
| Though it always looks the same |
| And all the things that we don't understand |
| We can give them a name |
| Sagittarius rising |
| In a cascade of clouds that go by |
| Sagittarius rising |
| Through the diamonds and dust in the sky |
| Sagittarius rising |
| And the world goes on spinning around |
| Sagittarius rising |
| When the heat of the sun has gone down |
| Eclipsing journeys made together |
| Through explosions and the strain |
| Observing all the earthly chaos |
| Where the fragments keep forming again |
| The future deep within the frontier |
| As we try to stay alive |
| In this love that we don't understand |
| Sufficient purpose to survive |
| One small step may take us forward |
| A tiny fraction of the way |
| Inching closer on the time scale |
| That lies a billion years away |
| And at the centre of the distance |
| In its power we all belong |
| And though for now, we don't understand |
| It keeps pulling us along |
| I saw that certain look in your eyes |
| I felt that need that you can't disguise |
| Jiust like a spring tide rising so free |
| I knew this thing just had to be |
| Take it easy time out to unwind |
| Time to forget all those things on your mind |
| Don't need an excuse or reason for going |
| Don't want to lose this love that's growing |
| Love's a strange mystery |
| You can't explain it you just can't foresee |
| Sometimes a flame sometimes a glow |
| And why it burns you'll never know |
| I've been waiting to hold you near |
| The time is now the place is here |
| We've got the mood and we've got the night |
| We'll find the way to make it right |
