What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
The birds were in the market square.
2
Your summer shawl was wrapped around,
3
Your shoulders in the evening air.
4
You tugged my sleeve, so I slowed down.
5
I smiled at how you love this place.
6
How all these things fill your eyes.
7
And as I bent to kiss your face,
8
You turned to me and seemed to rise.
9
And it was then, I saw the light.
10
I felt the air, go rushing past.
11
These things are fixed, now in my sight.
12
Your face. The fire. The flying glass.
13
I seldom drink, not since that night.
14
I've wondered if I were a ghost.
15
I've cursed at those who made that light.
16
Beyond these things I've missed you most.
17
When late at night, I dream of you.
18
The little things. Your face. Your eyes.
19
And walking in, our market, too.
20
But even in, my dreams, you rise. You rise.
