Is it a kind of dream
Floating out on the tide
Following the river of death downstream
Is it a dream?

There's a fog along the horizon
A strange glow in the sky
And nobody seems to know where you go
And what does it mean?
Is it a dream?

Bright eyes, burning like fire.
Bright eyes, how can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes.

Is it a kind of shadow
Reaching into the night
Wandering over the hills unseen
Or is it a dream?

There's a high wind in the trees
A cold sound in the air
And nobody ever knows when you go
And where do you start
into the dark.

Bright eyes
burning like fire.
Bright eyes
how can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes.

Great topic
One of the songs I always hated
deeply and profoundly

Looks like it's over, you knew I couldn't stay
She's comin' home today
We had a good thing, I'll miss your sweet love
Why must you look at me that way?
It's over

Sad eyes, turn the other way
I don't wanna see you cry
Sad eyes, you knew there'd come a day
When we would have to say goodbye

Try to remember the magic that we shared
In time your broken heart will mend
I never used you, you knew I really cared
I hate to see it have to end
But it's over

Sad eyes, turn the other way
I don't wanna see you cry
Sad eyes, you knew there'd come a day
When we would have to say goodbye

Sad eyes, turn the other way
I don't wanna see you cry
Sad eyes, you knew there'd come a day
When we would have to say goodbye

Why?

I grew up with Watership Down.

I thought that was a great book. I d/l'd the movie a few months ago, and haven't gotten through half. An overwhelming sense of melancholia swept me up. I don't know why, but I know I'd rather larf.
