Dawn of the Rose Red Fingers (lyric)
[... on the whole world
I never seen you above the sky...]
Dawn of the rose red fingers
Goddess of the dawn
Took Tithonous for her lover
Though he was a mortal man.
Lost all night in caresses
The two of them did twine
But in the morning when she woke
A tear fell from her eye.
Her lover's hair was silver-grey,
His skin a wrinkled sack,
His fingers clawed, his eyes were dimmed,
Dawn rose and turned her back.
So she had the Sun god buid her
A room of burnished bronze
And locked Tithonous within it
To become a pile of bones
Men are but the toys of the Gods
Tithonus did cry
They play with us, then tire of us,
And turn from us when we die.
[... isn't just that, (when we die)
the flowers grow on the ground
a little sunshine, a little rain,
its all about nature,
we are people
and we eat really good stuff
that we really want
and I rely love you... ]
