David Sylvian ----- Beautiful Country

Her mind slept well
At high altitudes
All the way through Boulder
With the stupas pointing skywards
Like true believers
In crystal blue

The last of empire
December late
Such a sweet decay
And we drive all night
‘Cause empires live long this way
Yeah we drive all night
Sleep by day

It’s a beautiful country
What a beautiful country

Joy grows from her fingers
Her native hands
Long roots burrow down
Into her stomach spilling the air out of her lungs
It’s the sharp end of the joyful life
You fell upon

The petals white
Veins are blue
She’s filled with wonder
At the life within her
And the sight of you
At her own translucent heart
And the sight of you

It’s a beautiful country
What a beautiful country

She’s been playing her games
She's Billy the Kid
Changing the voice I’d been calling out with
We’re losing our weight
Growing up thin
She stole the face of the lord so I won’t recognise him
But it’s all good, yes it’s okay
We wouldn’t have it any other way
Made our bed gonna lie in it
Watch the suns go down on the horizon

Way up in the pink hills
They’d drained the pool
There were sand flies buzzing
And the desert sun split us in two

It was an inland sea
Bombay beach
We were near narcoleptic
And the fireworks died with their heads down in the sand

This is your land and soon your land will by my land too

It’s a beautiful country
What a beautiful country

She’s been playing her games
To keep herself hid
Changing the voice I’d been calling out with
We’re losing our weight
Growing up thin
She stole the face of the Lord now I won’t recognise him
But it’s all alright, yes it’s okay
We wouldn’t have it any other way
Made our bed gonna lie in it
Watch the suns go down on the horizon

We’re setting up camp far from it all
Where the dirt roads rise behind the strip mall
Remove ourselves we got nothing to give
Between the earth and stars
We’ll find a place to live

Dust bowl diving
We ride the curves
She’s railroad happy
And the longest trains hammer through
With their headlights blazing for you

It’s a beautiful country
What a beautiful country
