lyrics

My heart is elsewhere. Here the long hill rises up
My heart is elsewhere. Down the hill and to the sea
And the silence is clutching at the moonlight

My heart is elsewhere. Holding one tiny hand
And in the other the lake washed in sunlight
There is ease with this simple mind-reading

Lay you down; ease you through to the morning
Let your bright eyes close so that they might shine again
In the morning. And a great morning awaits you
Oh fall to sleep, fall to sleep, and happy wake again

My heart is elsewhere. I am striding the long beach
With the sun, gold on the wave tops. But my heart is elsewhere
With scarce clouds enhancing the sky’s beady watchfulness

My heart is elsewhere. For to read and be read
Is completeness. And there was completion
In that hopeless finding.
