Susanne Sundfør - The Golden Age lyrics

The fading temple bells calm the
Waves the world rocks carefully
The sand draws it's constellations
In the moonlight the
Clocks turn back time to greet the Spring
While abandoned dolls in the seaweed dream
With open pearl eyes, among
Whales snoring dark frequencies into the
Night we dream of stones
Now all the softness is gone salt alters all
That remains it shapes pebbles and
Eternal thirst it carves
Up your body, so that you too will vapourise
And the rain will carry you out to sea

Slowly, I wake from a dream
To be in another dream
Where everything moves to the beat
Of a resonating drum

It rings louder and louder
And longer and longer
All the way to the border
And back to when we were young
And out of our minds out of our minds

Slowly, I fall into a dream to
Think that's just a dream
As breathing in and out with my beating heart

It beats louder and louder
And longer and longer
All the way to the border
And back to when I was young
And out of my mind out of my mind
