Kate Fenner - Transit of Venus lyrics

Artist: Kate Fenner

album: Dead Reckoning


Transit of Venus
The last time we met I know my face seemed unfamiliar
You hadn't seen the way your absence broke me
Nor the way I'd mended, scarred and silvered
One side pulled blue, stoop of apology
Grief is an artist with its painter's eye for detail
And its refusal of outside obligations
Oh, the details I held onto
The violinist on the corner by the window
In cowboy boots plays Mozart through an amp
Movie themes, Claire de Lune and Some Romantic Evening
Brief reprieve from that lion grief
The only way to hurt you would have been to tell you
That I knew you were not a noble man
But I loved you anyway.
What good is guilt with no mercy?
I have dreamt so strongly of you
Walked so, talked so
Loved so your shadow
Nothing remains of you
If he were to die the world would be a room where no one sees her
Is a line I read long after you were dead
Re-enter the story, fall in love with what's to be here
How can it be that there is still suspense?
Can I help you now? No
