Beth Gibbons & Rustin Man: Spider Monkey (Out of Season)
Time is but a memory
The bitter note unsung
Running
Tryin’ to find salvation
From the sorrow that is done
For the life of me
Will the sorrow rise
For this under
Underlies all i see
For time is but a memory
Beautiful for some
Feathered like a majorette
In a rose unsaid and done
Moments
Like a rainbow coloured sky
How they come and go
They come and go but why
For unknown
Is our fortune
And our fortune won’t let go
And our faith it will die with the sun
It will lie
Underneath
All will see
For time is but a memory
Beautiful for some
Feathered like a majorette
In a rose unsaid and done
But it’s all
All for our future
And our future won’t let go
那個夢的兩週後,在聖都瓦拉納西,夜晚的恒河邊,放船漂流。河岸上的 Ganga Aarti ritual 風火連連,一字排開的僧侶在吟唱中徐徐揮動手中拂麈。一片混亂的鐘鼓鳴之外,聽到吟唱的聲音,像極了之前夢裡的歌,我呆呆的對艾說,『這歌聲這麼悲,好像我那天夢裡聽過』。艾驚奇的回身問:『這歌聲很悲麼?我怎麼沒有覺得』。
