The Incredible String Band - Three Is a Green Crown lyrics
[The Incredible String Band - Three Is a Green Crown lyrics]
Nor yet with the lips of dark snow
But let the white dove sing
Of the body of life of the
Lover whose love is complete
Hold hands out to greet
Let not the swan be brought low
For all that is moving is moved by her hands
She is mirrored for ever in
The life of the lands
In the building of thoughts in
The shifting of sands
Life life remembering
Well, here you are now, oh now you are here
Well, how has it been so far?
The hair and the fur
Lemons, frankincense, and myrrh
For all that is moving is moved by her hands
She is mirrored for ever in
The life of the lands
In the building of thoughts in
The shifting of sands
Let the cracked crystal raindrop be
Merged in the sea
Silent, shining, thoughtless, free
But close your eyes to find the golden flower
And open them to see the sunshine shower
Where the flowers are free and the fishes ask
"Ah, what can water be?"
She beareth thought, she beareth visions
Speaking truth in contradictions
Dreams of pain, dreams of laughter
And every action follows after
O second self, o gate of the soft mystery
I'll love you if you'll love me
O guide me with the gold of Gabriel's wing
Grant me the tongue that all
The earth does sing
Vibrating light, forever one the sun
The book of life is open to us
There'll be no secrets left between us
