lyrics

Sulfur dawn
Horizon yawns to bellow out the day
A penny sun
Has just begun to bloom with velvet grace
High on holy mountain top I await
Oh I wait
For some sign
Some distant chime to stir my heart awake

Wear my words
Like emerald birds who glisten as we sway
Of feathered tongues
A wistful song will echo what we say
High upon the whispering palm I await
I await
The faintest wind
That will begin to stir my heart awake

Lover don't you bring me way down
Cause I've been high on the witch's wine
The sultan's brew and the falcon's eye

Zula Zula, the weasel and the ruler
Born up where the silence can grow
When I hold my hand out, that a-way we'll go
Splash of water, your daisy and your daughter
Chasing with a fragrant delight
Stir my heart awake

Golden Gracie, with straw upon her face
Is groovin' down the fifty-five
She has been hurt
But in the dirt is feelin' quite a alive
Righteous woman
Her mind is like an omen painted in the sherbet skies
Stir my heart awake
Stir my heart awake
Stir my heart awake
Awake
Awake
