"Triple Goddess Twilight" lyrics

"Triple Goddess Twilight"

I was a sweet baby in my mother's arms
We were strolling through the park
Picnic, peace walk, progress
Just a baby in her arms, my politics are based on her charms

Triple Goddess Twilight, slow down
Feel the land, violet everywhere, I'll meet you there
Mother, you died young and left me
Your twilight colors, rose, ah, burgundy, coral mist
What are the shades of loneliness?

Triple Goddess Twilight, late sky violet and pink
All roads lead to Venus
I'll meet you there in your dream of progress

My grandfather painted houses on a ladder in the sky
He was working class, urbane, streetwise
Said, "We can change the world, girl, love will inspire"
Told me this through whiskey and revolutionary fire

Triple Goddess Twilight, last trace of ruby and flame
First star leads to Venus

He left a war to talk in peace now
Sad life was for our dream, our dream of progress
