Dolena from Fuel by Dresser

Got four walls and four lights
At night every corner’s bright, tree in the north-west glistening with light
And I’ll make my way back before daylight
I see ya trying to reel me in, put up a fight with little care to win
But I’ve set my sights, set em high
The vantage point is right
And I can feel something crawling in the back of my mind

In the foothills of the mountain we lie
I watch my grandparents dance in the night sky

I think that I’ve seen that Dolena’s looking down
With her help I’ve found the source of that awful sound
Would you take me back, back to dance with the man in black

Remember when the texture of skin left impressions in our fingerprints?
Felt out for a transcendent position from where the view favours dictation of divine decision
When I used to bathe under supervision of you
You had a song and dance routine I wish I still knew

I think that I’ve seen that Dolena’s looking down
With her help I’ve found the source of that awful sound
Would you take me back, back to dance with the man in black

Oh but I’ll be fine
Try change my mind
If you’d been ‘round
What more could I’ve found?

I’ve been taken by surprise by such attentive eyes
A reception so fine
I want to make room for all of you
But my carving’s through
Now there’s space in which to contribute
