Margaret Set Lyrics

As the lovers sleep the night entwined

No better place for them to unwind

The picture of their honesty

Will soon be born for the world to see

It's not the face that tells the story

Or the years spent hanging in glory

Stare for hours with eyes unblinking

Not even I know what I'm thinking

And I don't know what I'm thinking

But there's a long way for us to go

Before we can really know

What lies beneath the living snow

In winters white the colours glow

I'm heading West to place my bet

Then I'm meeting up with the Margaret Set

Vainly time works without regret

And my sable is permanently wet

Time and love are kind to me and you

I'm just doing something that I can't do

There's no colour like the white of your eyes

No hiding, there's no disguise

Truth is more than just revealing

Stained skin and love unfeeling

Just skin and love unfeeling

But there's a long way for us to go

Before we may really know

What lies beneath the living snow

In winters white the colours glow

I'm heading West to place my bet

Then I'm meeting up with the Margaret Set
