Opeth - Spring MCMLXXIV Lyrics






On a wind that's sailing through the morning
I have cut the harness off of my heart
On a tide that's rising with the dawning
I find I belong inside the dark

And when the waves roll in to cover me in shame
I avoid another sign of the efforts made in vain
I am just another ripple in the current of an age
Another crossed out name on another wrinkled page

Carry me home
Carry me home
Carry me home
Carry me home

Carry me home
Carry me home
Carry me home
Carry me home

There's a dream that tells me I'm haunted
It comes to visit every fortnight or so
I wake up having lost all I have ever wanted
And a bleak apparition wants what I hold

And when the waves roll in to cover me in shame
I avoid another sign of the efforts made in vain
I am just another ripple in the current of an age
Another crossed out name on another wrinkled page

Carry me home
Carry me home
Carry me home
Carry me home

Carry me home
Carry me home
Carry me home
Carry me home

Should it disappear, should it go away?
Would it mend the wounds I bare, the wound of love?
Could it reappear like a familiar tale?
Like a broken friendship that snuffs the moonlight above

    Spring MCMLXXIV

    On a wind that is sailing through the morning
    I have cut the harness off of my heart
    On a tide that's rising with the dawning
    I find I belong inside the dark

    And when the waves roll in to cover me in shame
    I avoid another sign of the efforts made in vain
    I am just another ripple in the current of an age
    Another crossed out name on another wrinkled page

    Carry me home.

    There is a dream that tells me I am haunted
    It comes to visit every fortnight or so
    I wake up having lost all I have ever wanted
    And a bleak apparition wants what I hold

    And when the waves roll in to cover me in shame
    I avoid another sign of the efforts made in vain
    I am just another ripple in the current of an age
    Another crossed out name on another wrinkled page

    Carry me home

    Should it disappear, should it go away
    Would it mend the wounds I bare, the wounds of love
    Could it reappear like a familiar tale?
    Like a broken friendship that snuffs the moonlight above

    Sorceress i a great great great album, but this song with a fleeting glance and the ward, are in my opinion absolutely magic and perfect, my favorite songs of the album in my opinion, I really enjoy hearing them, and so thanks a lot.

    L.... t....

    This track, A Fleeting Glance, and Strange Brew are my favourites from this album. Sorceress II is beautiful as well. <3

  6. J.... M....

    This band is the heavy "Beatles". So many great songs.

    J.... M....

    check out the section at 3:34 of their new single Dignity and think Come Together.

    J.... M....

    I totally get what you mean but honestly in my opinion the Beatles dont come close to touching opeth

  7. L.... B....

    "Should be fine, right?"

  8. x.... ....

    Best song on Sorceress and one of Opeths best songs overall, imo. Particularly love the Pink Floyd-esque pre-chorus, but the Uriah Heep is pretty great too, and the Jon Lord solo, and the OPETH of course. While influences abound, none of them alone sound like this, only Opeth do.

    x.... ....

    Very well said, sir. This is indeed a beautiful track and the product of the mingling of multiple influences on an already creative mind. :3 Cheers.

    Uriah Heep is the biggest Heep of shit ive ever seen live on stage LOL. Worst band probably ever. I saw them open for a few months back Priest.
