Glenn Gould Song - Lyrics - Sarah Slean

I have my favourite shadows Ghosts and other courts bizarre Sometimes I believe I'm your mistress Sometimes you are dying in my arms You visit when I am listening to the Earth turn You ask me if I know your name I can smell the sweetness of the silence I wonder if your lips taste quite the same I love I love bigger than I had planned O I love I love a stranger a loney man Can I have a picture of your calm face You can have the space behind my eyes When we finally meet to drink some tea I somehow know it won't be a surprise O Love o Love it's silly it's juvenile I love I love a quiet but a dead man's smile I love it's silly it's juvenile I love I love a quiet a dead man's smile O love O love . . . bigger than I had planned I love I love a stranger a lonely man
