about

A psych folk love song to the fairest Sapphire.

lyrics

Fair Sapphire. Your eyes look like the falling rain lost inside the Darkest Sea
Drifting far away, fair Sapphire
Fair Sapphire, reaching out for every tree, fingers spun between the leaves
Restless to her soul, fair Sapphire
Time won’t rush across the face, her scent that flowers out of place
Driven by such sweet perfume, nestled in the brockade gloom
Fair Sapphire, the equal of the sun and moon, and everything that one can do
Must still give its way to fair Sapphire
Fair Sapphire, your river runs to fast to breach, swept up off those lonely feet.
Nothing can endure fair Sapphire
Cast aside such earthly ways, drawback from the modern age, and clothe it all in artifice
Nothings left unsaid, from heaven you are sent
So lay me down beside the fair Sapphire
Fair Sapphire (repeat)
