"The Music Of The Spheres" lyrics

Johnny Flynn & Lillie Flynn Lyrics

"The Music Of The Spheres"

Oh, the music of the spheres
It likes strange light, it boasts
Dreamside it lives
Moon bright, it sings
"Oh, we are wondering"
Mystery conjuring
Knowing each other
In the stardust of a magpie [?]

Crows, rooks and ravens
Fly together on occasions
But all the corvids gaze
Including magpies, fly [?]
Sunbathed
And ones are proud, for you they bowed to
Fear of taking too much space
So one for sorrow, one for solace
Only one bird in the race

Oh, the music of the spheres
It likes strange light, it boasts
Dreamside it lives
Moon bright, it sings
"Oh, we are wondering"
Mystery conjuring
Knowing each other
In the stardust of a magpie [?]

I felt your gaze [?]
I've known you many ways
The seasons turned, the fire burned
And love's not all it cost [?]
In space
And like the seeming lonely magpie
Whose soulmate is watching nearby
Two is kind and two is dancing
Shining on each other's graves

Oh, the music of the spheres
It likes strange light, it boasts
Dreamside it lives
Moon bright, it sings
"Oh, we are wondering"
Mystery conjuring
Knowing each other
In the stardust of a magpie [?]

And helpless to the songs of stars
The planets move with wisdom's charms
And give us things we cannot fathom
Delivering the charge
To atoms
And longing for the peace together
Famished for some better weather
Three is here and three is there
I never knew what love to share

Oh, the music of the spheres
It likes strange light, it boasts
Dreamside it lives
Moon bright, it sings
"Oh, we are wondering"
Mystery conjuring
Knowing each other
In the stardust of a magpie [?]

Oh, the music of the spheres
It likes strange light, it boasts
Dreamside it lives
Moon bright, it sings
"Oh, we are wondering"
Mystery conjuring
Knowing each other
In the stardust of a magpie [?]
