                      Dreams of Reason Produce Monsters
                                  Mick Karn
                          (featuring David Sylvian)

                                    Buoy

                          Underneath a burning sun
                       There's always work to be done
                 We take much more than we care to give away

                      You'll be the moth, I'm the flame
                 I'll bless you and keep you safe and sound
                      Until sunrise comes around again

                      I'm like a mountain made of stone
                         I'm like a new day dawning
                  I'll be here every morning, close to you

              We'll sail on a river, way out to the Baltic sea
                         Love will keep us together
                   And the tide will draw you close to me
                 (Never words so true, never words so wise)
                         Love will keep us together
               'Cause there's more to this than meets the eye

                        I burn a candle in your place
                     I picture the passions on your face
                 Feelings that rise on a wave and fall away

                       All the pleasures have returned
                  All of the lessons I should have learned
                    Return again to light, for us to see

                      You're like a map of buried gold
                     I search for treasures in your soul
           And when I'm gone, you'll know I will come back to you

              We'll sail on a river, way down to the salty sea
                         Love will keep us together
                   And the tide will draw you close to me
                 (Never words so true, never words so wise)
                         Love will keep us together
               'Cause there's more to this than meets the eye

                      I'm like a mountain made of stone
                         I'm like a new day dawning
                  I'll be here every morning, close to you

                             When love walks in

                        There's something in the air
                      It's never felt like this before
                            A turning of the tide
                        A slamming of both the doors

             I find myself a quiet place that no one's ever seen
             A blazing sun will shine upon the road ahead of me
                             When love walks in

                           I see it in their eyes
                     The flames to burn the final straw
                The heathen struck the match and lit the fire
                      A wish fulfilled and nothing more

                    Why take me now there's nothing more
                     Just hold me close and say good-bye
                      There'll be tomorrow's given time
                 Just close your eyes and leave this behind
                             Then love walks in
                          Like waves of golden sand
                           heavenly floating seas
          The power in their hands, bring mountains to their knees
