Before The Bullfight
David Sylvian

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 that 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 till you'd gone

Guilty of stealing every thought I own

I will take my turn to fight the bull fight

Every word's sunk in deep

Like the blades of a knife through my heart

But my strength will return to fight the bull fight

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 loose its way when you're gone

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

I will take my turn to fight the bull fight

Say a prayer for my release

When every hope in the world is asleep

And my strength will return to fight the bull fight
