Systems of Romance
Echoes of pleasure
A shiver in the dark
When you call my name
Sudden horizons
Open and close between us
Touching me briefly
With a healing grace
Patterns of longing
Figures down echo causeways
Across the wild seas
We spin away
Time and again
Systems of Romance
Systems of Romance
Oh meet me and change me
In rooms that go sailing
Voices will name you
As you move away
Lakeland in silver
Blazing away behind you
Rapids of cloud
I lose my way
Time and again
Endless horizons...
Hopes are our empires now
Crossing all codings
Engaged in the timeless dance

| "Written
in 1978 and I used the title for another album. The main song
was written swiftly, but I didn't quite have time to finish the
main theme. Didn't fit on Metamatic
so I kept it. One of those songs that takes about ten minutes
to write and you just know it works." |
