Now the raging   of the forest fires ebbed   and all the mammals fled   I smell   in the charred darkness   a little green,   a little red   When you sang your song   your voice washed over the sea   Glacial run of a beautiful blue light   came o'er me   came o'er me      Drink deep, my love   for the water is gasping for your mouth   gasping for your mouth   Drink deep, my love   for the water is gasping for your mouth      I remember in the burning   secret magic expanse   a flame universe of bright golden light   I treasured a hope fast   but it was too hard to touch   I flew out with the cinders in the mighty black rush      Drink deep, my love   for the water is gasping for your mouth   gasping for your mouth   Drink deep, my love   for the water is gasping for your mouth      And the fire closed his eyes   Tipped his flame hat and slipped through the dire rye   We wandered romantic   and we scattered dark branches   With the singing green stars as our guide   With the singing green stars as our guide      Drink deep, my love   for the water is gasping for your mouth   gasping for your mouth   Drink deep, my love   for the water is gasping for your mouth   Drink deep, my love   for the water is gasping for your mouth   gasping for your mouth   Drink deep, my love   for the water is gasping for your mouth
