The Silk Road
So we were married on the silk road A thousand giants throwing rocks And just as I pulled back your white veil You were struck.
We had your funeral in the ocean Off the coast of Mozambique. That's where you said you always wanted To live,
So I said, 'Lay her here so she can always hear the trees calling her name. And they'll wrap their roots so gently all around her frozen frame.'
So I carved you into marble Placed you high up in the frieze So old Herodotus would write entire books About your glory.

And I said, 'Play that song That echoed through the church when you were born.' But then the music stopped And I never heard another sound from you.
So I was walking on the silk road Heading home for the last time And you were sitting waiting for me on the side
Beneath the tree I just kept walking I didn't see.
