Down And Away by Janis Ian


I know your name

Through every drop of rain that falls

I've known them all

Through every stillborn hurricane

And the skies unchained

On the unwashed plain

And the driving rain

 

Time has a way of slipping past

Like reason through the hourglass

We hear too fast

The lines don't last

 

Not like they used to do

When I had you

The lines I threw away

Down and away

 

I loved you young

When all impression gathered, spun

On foreign suns

We gathered crumbs

One or another drifting by

Past regiments of humble pie

And the soggy sky

And the unstitched eye

Writ across the glass

Of an unsung past

 

Not like it used to do

When I had you

The words I threw away

Down and away

 

On the unmarked road to hell

All the faithless heroes dwell

And the wine blood sand

Of a burned out land

Drifting on the wind

Of each and every faceless sin

 

Bursting through the eyes

Of these whitewashed skies

Not unlike the sighs

Of your pale blue thighs

Unchecked visions stream

Each, succeeding, dreams

On the rights of kings

And the balance swings

 

Not like it used to do

When I had you

The lives I threw away

Down and away

Down and away
