  • Artist Info: I've seen her walking on the seashore,<br />
    When there's nothing to be done or said.<br />
    It's just a sweet marriage of the waters,<br />
    As they close over her head.<br />
    <br />
    There's a pearl shining on the sea floor.<br />
    There's a slant of light above.<br />
    Rocking in the cradle of the deep now,<br />
    This is not the whirlpool, this is love.<br />
    <br />
    I have seen the Bird of Paradise,<br />
    She has spread her wings before me,<br />
    And I'm never going to be the same again.<br />
    Now there's no one, no one to see me,<br />
    Now there's no one, no one to hear me,<br />
    Now there's no one, no one to touch me,<br />
    Now there's no one, no one to set me free.<br />
    <br />
    I have seen the Bird of Paradise,<br />
    She's spread her wings before me,<br />
    And I'm never going to be the same again.<br />
    <br />
    She says, "I am an island,"<br />
    And there's nothing around me,<br />
    But the grey sea.<br />
    And I'm like stone at the centre,<br />
    I'm like ice the whole year through.<br />
    <br />
    And I'm always saying that I want you,<br />
    While my heart is truning into stone.<br />
    And if the summer comes tomorrow,<br />
    I'm still so cold, I'm still so alone.<br />
    <br />
    And she says "I am a city,"<br />
    I'm a ruin on the edge of the night.<br />
    I'm like a ghost in the garden,<br />
    Now the well is running dry.<br />
    <br />
    If she could only fill this whole grand frame,<br />
    If she could fill the distance up,<br />
    If you could only touch her cold lips,<br />
    With a golden cup...<br />
