lyrics

Now we're lost in information
And text arrives like acid rain
The linking of all nations
While litter blocks our country lanes

You lean towards me and you whisper
A mobile caller breaks the spell
Our train is sleeping at the station
Is this standard class or living hell?

Hush

He's been holding back a secret
She's been seeking out the truth
Now the kiss that meant I love you
Breaks the heart that once was bulletproof

And while a single bird is singing
On an aerial in the sky
A mother's nest lies cold and empty
As the children stare and wonder why

Love is not some wheel of fortune
Or a picture in a frame
It's the gossamer and tightrope
With excuses from the hall of shame

Hush

See that magic silver circle
Appearing from the clouds
It casts beauty on the ocean
Just as the sun starts going down

So the poets write of romance
Composers call the tune
As the light shines down from heaven
To a child it's just the moon
