clover and stone

my today’s song is quite schmalzig (english: sentimental).

clover and stone (GEMA)

the lyrics:

When I slip into your dress
And you into my shirt,
We step out together.
Hand in hand,
as though into a forest without trees.

Far, far beyond the city lies the gate
once called Hades.
Today it bears no name.
Acheron—your waters are gone.
No ferryman is needed.
[Charon sleeps in his dry dock.]

When I wear your clover
And you my stone,
We run together, hand in hand,
Through the forest without trees.

A cow bellows, a blackbird.
The bramble brushes across the crossroads.
Children laugh like painted clowns.
Where are you? *

When I put on your bikini
And you my football shoes,
We lie beneath the canvas
In the forest without trees.
