Down and Away - Janis Ian[00:00:00]
Written by:Janis Ian[00:00:00]
I know your name[00:00:03]
Through every drop of rain that falls[00:00:08]
I've known them all[00:00:12]
Through every stillborn hurricane[00:00:16]
And the skies unchained[00:00:21]
On the unwashed plain[00:00:24]
And the driving rain[00:00:27]
Time has a way of slipping past[00:00:30]
Like reason through the hourglass[00:00:37]
We hear too fast[00:00:42]
The lines don't last[00:00:45]
Not like they used to do[00:00:48]
When I had you[00:00:53]
How fast they flew away[00:00:57]
Down and away[00:01:02]
I loved you young[00:01:07]
When all impression gathered spun[00:01:13]
On foreign suns[00:01:17]
We gathered crumbs[00:01:21]
One or another drifting by[00:01:23]
Past regiments of humble pie[00:01:31]
And the soggy sky[00:01:35]
And the unstitched eye[00:01:39]
Writ across the glass[00:01:42]
Of an unsung past[00:01:44]
Not like it used to do[00:01:46]
When I had you[00:01:52]
The words I threw away[00:01:56]
Down and away[00:02:01]
On the unmarked road to hell[00:02:06]
All the faithless heroes dwell[00:02:12]
And the wine blood sand[00:02:16]
Of a burned out land[00:02:20]
Drifting on the wind[00:02:22]
Of each and every faceless sin[00:02:30]
Bursting through the eyes[00:02:34]
Of these whitewashed skies[00:02:37]
Not unlike the sighs[00:02:40]
Of your pale blue thighs[00:02:43]
Unchecked visions stream[00:02:46]
Each succeeding dreams[00:02:49]
On the rights of kings[00:02:52]
And the balance swings[00:02:54]
Not like it used to do[00:02:57]
When I had you[00:03:02]
The lives I threw away[00:03:06]
Down and away[00:03:10]
Down and away[00:03:15]
