And in the element of light,
The sun reflected from the waves.
In shore, it spangles.
The child of air is borne upon the wind
That blows across the sea.
And in the element of summer,
The cliffs suspended in the heat,
The air in columns.
The tiny figures of the world are walking
Underneath your feet,
And underneath your hair.
Where angels wander
I'll wander too.
Where angels wander... over you,
And in the element of darkness
The starlight shimmers on the spray,
And falls towards you.
Your perfect lover's never there.
And if she was, she wouldn't be,
And neither, though, would you.
Save your illusions
For someone else.
Save your illusions
For yourself.
Element.
And in the element of laughter,
The quick explosion and the slow
Release of heat, you...
The tide recedes upon the bones of
Something beautiful, and drowned
In coral and in jade.
Where angels hover
I'll hover too.
Where angels hover... over you.
Over you.
Over you.
