The Spider And The Fly Lyrics
Trembling like a fly all tangled in a web unseen
Feeling like I’m always falling backwards in the dream
Around me all the holy men were kneeling on the floor
Asking for forgiveness, they would wait forever more
A cool wind blows on by
The spider and the fly
In the dying light I saw a child there so fair
Bending through the shadows as she moved up through the air
I could hear her voice as it came calling through the dark
Though I never found her, I have held her in my heart
A cool wind blows on by
The spider and the fly
I could always feel you here with me, forming all the words I ever speak
Seeing everything that will ever be, through me
Over all the years now I have always heard this song
It sings me off to sleep and then it wakes me in the dawn
It was such a mystery I pondered all the time
One day without warning it came forming in my mind
A cool wind blows on by
The spider and the fly
Feeling like I’m always falling backwards in the dream
Around me all the holy men were kneeling on the floor
Asking for forgiveness, they would wait forever more
The spider and the fly
Bending through the shadows as she moved up through the air
I could hear her voice as it came calling through the dark
Though I never found her, I have held her in my heart
The spider and the fly
Seeing everything that will ever be, through me
It sings me off to sleep and then it wakes me in the dawn
It was such a mystery I pondered all the time
One day without warning it came forming in my mind
The spider and the fly
