Cry, cry! Cry, cry! Seventeen ships sleep in the still night's water Seventeen stars to guide them should they wake Seventeen past the hour all things altered Too soon the wind casts its fate Red was the color of her coat A long time ago during a storm Red is the color of new lover's kiss Red be the color ravaged and worn Who cries? Who cries? To you: Take your time To you: Ain't nothing but time To you: Time is a long way down Red embers burn in each vessel And drift over sapphire depths Upon the shore cat lay nestled And cannot assume a watery breath Who cries? Who cries? Who cries? To you: Take your time To you: Ain't nothing but time To you: Time is a long way down Some of us glide unsteady oceans Some others through the safety of land Red colors stoke our devotion Seventeen ruins break on the sand Who cries? Who cries? Who cries?
