On the banks of a sunset beach

Messages scratched in sand

Beneath a roaming home of stars

Young boys try their hand

A spanish harbouring of sorts

In catalonian bars

They were pulled from a sinking ship

And saved for last

On the waterfront the rain

Is pouring in my heart

Here the memories come in waves

Raking in the lost and found of years

And though I'd like to laugh

At all the things that led me on

Somehow the stigma still remains

Watch the train steam full ahead

As it takes the bend

Empty carriages lose their tracks

Tumble to their end

So the world shrinks drop by drop

As the wine goes to your head

Swollen angels point and laugh

This time your God is dead

On the waterfront the rain

Is pouring in my heart

Here the memories come in waves

Raking in the lost and found of years

And though I'd like to laugh

At all the things that led me on

Somehow the stigma still remains

Is our love strong enough?

I adore Scott Walker. Apparently, so does David Sylvian. This is a masterpiece.

Funny you should mention that - already many years ago, from some magazine article on his music, I remember a photo of David Sylvian - looking like a dead ringer for Liszt as seen in the famous Henri Lehmann painting. The pose, the coat, the hair... the similarity was uncanny (must have been intentional). can't remember the magazine though... now with the white hair he's at it again it seems! :)
