The Return of the Son of Nothing (Live in Rome 20-06-1971)
Planets meeting face to face, One to the other cry, how sweet, If endlessly we might embrace A perfect union deep in space, Heaven might this once relent And give us leave to shine as one, Our two lights here Forever one light blended.
And in that longing to be one The parting summons' sound is drawn. I see you've got to travel on, And on and on around the sun.
Strangers passing in the street By chance two separate glances meet And I am you and what I see is me And do I take you by the hand And lead you through the land And help me understand the best I can
And no one calls us to move on And no one forces down our eyes And no one speaks and no one tries No one flies around the sun
Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes Inviting and inciting me to rise And through the window in the wall Come streaming in on sunlight wings A million bright ambassadors of morning
And no one sings me lullabies And no one makes me close my eyes And so I throw the windows wide And call to you across the sky
