Pink Floyd - Disco: 'More'

Cirrus Minor

Waters

In a churchyard
by a river,

Lazing in the haze of midday,

Laughing in the grasses and the graze.

Yellow bird, you are alone

In singing and in flying on,

In laughing and in leaving.

Willow weeping
in the water,

Waving to the river daughters,

Swaying in the ripples and the reeds.

On a trip to Cirrus Minor,

Saw a crater in the sun

A thousand miles of moonlight later.

Cirros pequeños

The Nile Song
Waters

I was standing
by the Nile
When I saw the lady smile.
I would take her out for a while,
For a while.

Oh, my tears wept
like a child.
How her golden hair was blowing wild.
Then she spread her wings to fly,
For to fly.

Soaring high above
the breezes,
Going always where she pleases.
She will make it to the islands in the sun.

I will follow
in her shadow
As I watch her from my window.
One day I will catch her eye.

She is calling
from the deep,
Summoning my soul to endless sleep.
She is bound to drag me down,
Drag me down.

La canción del Nilo

Crying Song
Waters

We smile and smile
We smile and smile
Laughter echoes in your eyes
We climb and climb
We climb and climb
Footfalls softly in the pines
We cry and cry
We cry and cry
Sadness passes in a while
We roll and roll
We roll and roll
Help me roll away the stone.

Canción para llorar

Green is the Colour
Waters

Heavy hung the
canopy of blue
Shade my eyes and I can see you
White is the light that shines through the dress that you wore

She lay in the
shadow of the wave
Hazy were the visions of her playing
Sunlight on her eyes but moonshine made her cry ev'ry time

Green is the colour
of her kind
Quickness of the eye deceives the mind
Envy is the bond between the hopeful and the damned.

Verde es el color de...

Cymbaline
Waters

The path you tread
is narrow
And the drop is shear and very high
The ravens all are watching
From a vantage point nearby
Apprehension creeping
Like a tube-train up your spine
Will the tightrope reach the end
Will the final couplet rhyme

And it's high
time
Cymbaline
It's high time
Cymbaline
Please wake me

A butterfly with
broken wings
Is falling by your side
The ravens all are closing in
And there's nowhere you can hide
Your manager and agent
Are both busy on the phone
Selling coloured photographs
To magazines back home

And it's high
time
Cymbaline
It's high time
Cymbaline
Please wake me

The lines converging
where you stand
They must have moved the picture plane
The leaves are heavy around your feet
You hear the thunder of the train
And suddenly it strikes you
That they're moving into range
Doctor Strange is always changing size

And it's high
time
Cymbaline
It's high time
Cymbaline
Please wake me

And it's high
time
Cymbaline
It's high time
Cymbaline
Please wake me.

Ibiza Bar
Waters/Wright/Gilmour/Mason

I'm so afraid
of the mistakes that I made
Taking every time that I wake
I feel like a hard-boiled and cut-up man
So give me a time when the countries will lie
on the storyline if kind

Are days are made
since the first page
I've lived every line that you wrote
Take me down, take me down, from the shelf above your head
So give me a time when the countries will lie
on the storyline if kind

And if I live
on the shelf like the rest
And if love bleeds like a sad song
Please pick-up your camera and use me again
So give me a time when the countries will lie
on the storyline if kind
Yea.

Bar de Ibiza

A Spanish Piece
Gilmour

Pass the tequila,
Manuel
(glug, snort)
Listen, gringo, laugh at my lisp and I kill you
I think
This Spanish music
It sets my soul on fire
Lovely seniorita
Your eyes are like stars
Your teeth are like pearls
Your ruby lips.
