Mayfly Man Songtext
von Qiet

I don′t know that I was lost
But I knew that I had to find my way
Visions drove me to and from
As I watched my mind become a cloudy maze
And suddenly the cobwebs moved
By the frigid breeze in the rising heat
As it occurred to me finally
That I was right where I should be

My heart raced as I realized
I don't know where I′ve been going
But no matter now because I'm going home

Passion is a lovely mess
In a shroud of words, tongues and thoughts and limbs
And the fire just beyond those walls
Glows a subtle glow of the light within


I can taste your desperate lust
From a thousand miles
Hear your beating heart
But don't call upon the Mayfly Man
Who will meet his end
Far before you start

Your heart races as you realize
You don′t know where you′ve been going
No matter now because it's time to go home
Wherever that may be

If you want a man who will need
You night and day
No I won′t
If you need someone to tell you
He's here to stay
No, I won′t

I don't speak and I don′t cry
I surrender to a sweet goodbye
And the moonshine lights the riverside
Where the dead trees sweetly lie

We've only got a moment here
And I fear we are near the end
So, who am I to judge the words
Spoken quietly between gods and men?


My heart races as I realize
I know just where I am going
I'm going home where the days are long
Maybe I will see you

If you want a man who will need
You night and day
No I won′t
If you need someone to tell you
He′s here to stay
No, I won't
