Текст (слова) песни: Van Der Graaf Generator - Afterwards
You stare out in yellow eyes larger than my mind; in viscous pools of joy, relaxing, we glide... it`s all too beautiful for my mind to bear. and, as we shimmer into sleep, something`s unshared. But, seeing the flower that was there yesterday, a tear forms just behind the soft peace of your shades... The world`s too lonely for a message to slip but between the dying rails of peace you trip. The petals that were blooming are just paper in your hand; your eyes, which were clear in the night, are opaque as you stand... It was too beautiful for it to last... These visions shimmer and fade out of the glass.
