Video David Sylvian-Before the Bullfight live Milano 23.09.2007

Sonorità uniche.....

I hear your voice way down inside

A whispering sea of towering trees

But no reply


A silence so rare and more than I can stand

Sweeps like a flood

Through life's flesh and blood

And steals away with its heart


If I'm losing you

Then there's nothing more than I can say

The fighting is on and battles are won

Or thrown away


But if I could live safe and sound

In God given fields or mountains of steel

Then here I'd stay 'til you're gone


Guilty of stealing every thought I own

I will take my turn to fight the bullfight

Every word's sunk in deep

Like the blades of a knife through my heart

But my strenght will return to fight the bullfight


As time's come to show

I'm told nothing more than I should know

A ship on the sea that threatens to leave

But never goes


This island of blue

Where life clings to your hands

Like water and sand will lose its way

When you're gone


When all's forgiven still every fault's my own

I will take my turn to fight the bullfight

Say a prayer for my release

When every hope in the world is asleep

And my strenght will return to fight the bullfight
