Out on the tar plains the glides are moving,
All looking for a new place to drive
You sit beside me, so newly charming
Sweating dew drops glisten, freshing your side
Chorus:
And the sun drips down, bedding heavy behind,
The front of your dress, all shadowy lined,
Then the droning engine throbs
in time with your beating heart
Way down the lane away, living for another day
The aphids swarm up in the drifting haze
Swim seagull in the sky towards
that hollow western isle
My envied lady holds you fast in her gaze
chorus (x2)
Sing, Blue Silver
And watching lovers part, I feel you smiling
What glass splinters lie so deep in your mind
To tear out from your eyes with
a word to stiffen brooding lies
But I'll only watch you leave me further behind
chorus (x2)
Sing, Blue Silver
Sing, sing Blue Silver
