Elsinore

I bid farewell to the ghosts of Elsinore Their silken gowns against the white, white shore The tainted skies, the HH-Ferries - their hearts of chrome The wheezin' starlings and the dashin' foam Down by Smuggler's Bay the pines turn scarlet and gold I used to sit there and play my guitar when I was fifteen years old Whisperin' words like "maybe" and "someday" in the flickerin' dawn I laid me down and slept upon the emerald lawns Day by day I'm a-losin' the blues Once again shall music swell this tired chest Morning's comin' through the woods now The river's on the rise The frost is gone The rusty gears are turnin' And I'm alive I was locked in tight, but springtime's pushin' through the Judas tree Horatio, there's more to this world than is dreamt of in your philosophy May your shackles be what sets you free, she'll come to thee With frankincense and almonds all the way from Galilee Slings and arrows, January, rosy cheeks I fell into the ocean of her pity Hungry, bloody tigers - straight out of Colosseum Came chargin' down the halls of the museum Day by day I'm a-losin' the blues Once again shall music swell this tired chest Morning's comin' through the woods now The river's on the rise The frost is gone The rusty gears are turnin' And I'm alive Come watch me haul my wicked past into the deep Where the great leviathans lie forgotten, fast asleep Come flamin' drakes and night crows, make me music Bewitchin' like the wanton mermaid's song I've heard 'em say that love is longer than the way That hell is deeper than the sea That death is colder than the clay Tomorrow night, just like a renegade, I'll slip away Day by day I'm a-losin' the blues Once again shall music swell this tired chest Morning's comin' through the woods now The river's on the rise The frost is gone The rusty gears are turnin' And I'm alive
