Lyrics
mid summer night
dreams of the new world
eyes bright on some goddess
from when time stood still
mid summer rights
scenes of free will
shimmers of somnolence
inlaid like pearl
and i wish them well
dauphins and damsels
what is to be
when the wind signs
skies of remembrance
some earlier time
what is to see
eight days to benign
traffic entranced
by spotted white lies
and i wish them well
dauphins and damsels
blood on the lands
the rain can't wash off
rusting in meadows
furrowed in trust
to understand
regrets of dust
where in the shadows
love once was enough
and i wish them well
dauphins and damsels
yeah i wish them well
dauphins and damsels
