David Sylvian - Thalheim lyrics

Couldn't leave you if I tried

Couldn't weather this alone

And through the darkness you still provide

The sweetest love I've ever known

Take the shadow from the road I walk upon

Be my sunshine, sunshine

And in the emptiness

You look and find someone

The damage is undone

And love has made you strong

And Heaven gave me mine, Thalheim

The saddest words have come undone

Changing the very air I breathe

And miracles have just begun

In which only you and I believe

Take the shadow from the road I walk upon

Be my sunshine, sunshine

And in the weightlessness

You look and find someone

The damage is undone

And love has made you strong

Heaven gave me mine, Thalheim

When I'm all at sea

You never let me down

I'll just keep coming back to you

'Til I walk on solid ground

From the foothills to the mountains

On the waters of the Rhine

Face to face in Shahbagh gardens

In communion, out of time

Thalheim, Thalheim

From the lilies of the valley

To the grapes upon the vine

The well of speculation

Is it his or hers or mine?

Thalheim, Thalheim

In the everything and nothing

In disharmony and rhyme

In the sound of shot and echo

Who's the victim, what's the crime?

What's the crime?

Be my, be my sunshine

In the keening cries of evening

Unforgotten, underlined

We slipped into the water

Out of focus, out of time.
