Who moved the white queen
When Gimmel and Daleth where standing between?
Out of the evening growing a veil
Pining for the pine woods that ached for the sail
There's something forgotten I want you to know
The freckles of rain are telling me so
O it's the old forgotten question
What is that we are part of?
What is it that we are?
And an elephant madness has covered the sun
The judge and the juries they play for the fun
They've torn up the roses and washed all the soap
And the martyr who marries them dares not elope
O it's the never realised question
O long O long e're yet my eyes
Braved the gates enormous fire
And the body folded 'round me
And the person in me grew
The flower and it's petal
The root and it's grasp
The earth and it's bigness
The breath and it's gasp
The mind and it's motion
The foot and it's move
The life and it's pattern
The heart and it's love
O it's the half-remarkable question.
Who moved the black castle Who moved the white queen When Gimmel and Daleth where standing between? Out of the evening growing a veil Pining for the pine woods that ached for the sail There's something forgotten I want you to know The freckles of rain are telling me so O it's the old forgotten question What is that we are part of? What is it that we are? And an elephant madness has covered the sun The judge and the juries they play for the fun They've torn up the roses and washed all the soap And the martyr who marries them dares not elope O it's the never realised question O long O long e're yet my eyes Braved the gates enormous fire And the body folded 'round me And the person in me grew The flower and it's petal The root and it's grasp The earth and it's bigness The breath and it's gasp The mind and it's motion The foot and it's move The life and it's pattern The heart and it's love O it's the half-remarkable question.
