Thermal - David Sylvian[00:00:00]
Morning you lay sleeping[00:00:10]
Your small body clinging tightly to mine[00:00:16]
With frightening dependency[00:00:18]
Life defining impossible to betray[00:00:21]
And with that [00:00:27]
The mattress rose[00:00:29]
Set adrift on the burgeoning emotional tide[00:00:31]
Colliding with the once stationary objects[00:00:35]
Of an uninhabited life[00:00:37]
What had been concealed[00:00:42]
Was exhaled from god knows where[00:00:43]
Colour-drained unsalvageable[00:00:47]
Shape shifting[00:00:50]
And with function relinquished[00:00:52]
Resigned from service[00:00:54]
Two blue sleeping bags[00:01:00]
Nudged against one another[00:01:01]
Bearing the once warm imprint of our bodies[00:01:03]
The sun-baked stone garden[00:01:10]
Retracted its promise[00:01:12]
It was cold in that place of perpetual summer[00:01:14]
If you were afraid you didn't show it[00:01:21]
You who were born bearing the face[00:01:24]
Of irrepressible grief[00:01:26]
So as not to disappoint you[00:01:32]
I lay motionless[00:01:33]
Rapt by the rise and stall of your breathing[00:01:36]
Your fingertips and thighs[00:01:41]
Quietly affirming my place at your side[00:01:43]
