lyrics

How long have we lived here
& whose prophecy was today?
How long have we stood here
& cracked our eyes upon the gate?

Cities of gold
Cities of gold
Cities of gold
Falling

Our fullness in the forest
& our tenderness when we meet
I laid the infant down to dream
& shooed the blood-sucking fairies from her feet

Cities of gold
Cities of gold
Cities of gold
Falling

I never meant to harness or to halter
I never wished to know your name
But to wander & go lightly down the shimmering path
& to wish for you the same

Cities of gold
Cities of gold
Cities of gold
Falling

"...hazy & beautiful, content to balance contradictions: critics calling them at first "clear & bright" & then in the next sentence, "creaky & weird;" "the best-kept secret in American music of the new century."
