There’s flickering light
        From here to nowhere
Within ten thousand years
                The flickering light from here
Will meet with
                        The flickering light from nowhere
Or there
                                Take care
Of what you wish for
                                        Says the beam of white teeth
From the mouth of a gorilla
                                                Greensleeves under the burning sky
The whispering bay says:
                                                        There will be rain
Tonight
                                                There
You’ve got something to look forward to
                                        The rushing of water makes you smile
Tearing down
                                For the raindrops
Falling into disguise
                        Fantasising about
Nothing in nowhere
                Light meeting up with light
And there is darkness
        All around
Them.
