Lyrics Martyn Bates - Trade Winds

i'm struck
and sure every splintered sight
will run together tomorrow

that trucks well hidden
will hide my flight
so that where i go
no one follows

oh i long to know you as no one else
i know i know that you're moving me
with your red and golden heaven scent
all a blazing perfume of loving

a tear for a tear i will trade you then
a tear so long to be learning
a hand of joy like a pearl
a pearl to spend upon a spangled journey

i long to see you in morning light
oh let a stranger discover
that the face to gaze from my dawning sight
is the smile
on the lips of a lover
