turn of the century

• ing. yüzyıl sınırı, bir sonraki yüzyıla geçilen an
• yes'in going for the one albumunun 2. $arkisi.
  
  realising a form out of stone
  set hands moving
  roan shaped his heart
  thru his working hands
  work to mould his passion into clay
  like the sun
  
  in his room, his lady
  she would dance and sing so completely
  so be still, he now cries
  i have time, oh let clay transform thee so
  
  in the deep cold of night
  winter calls, he cries, don't deny me
  for his lady, deep her illness
  time has caught her
  and will for all reasons take her
  
  in the still light of dawn, she dies
  helpless hands soul revealing
  
  like leaves we touch, we learn
  we once knew the story
  as winter calls he will starve
  all but to see the stone be life
  
  now roan no more tears
  set to work his strength
  so transformed him
  realising a form out of stone, his work
  so absorbed him
  could she hear him
  could she see him
  all aglow was his room dazed in this light
  he would touch her
  he would hold her
  laughing as they danced
  highest colours touching others
  
  did her eyes at the turn of the century
  tell me plainly
  when we meet, how we'll love, oh let life so transform me
  
  like leaves we touched, we danced
  we once knew the story
  as autumn called and we both
  remembered all those many years ago
  i'm sure we know
  
  was the sign with a touch
  as i kiss your fingers
  we walk hands in the sun
  memories when we're young
  love lingers so.
  
  was it sun thru the haze
  that made all your looks
  as warm as moonlight
  as a pearl deep your eyes
  tears have flown away
  all the same light
  
  did her eyes at the turn of the century
  tell me plainly
  when we meet how we'll look
  as we smile time will leave me clearly
  
  like leaves we touch, we see
  we will know the story
  as autumn calls we'll both remember
  all those many years ago

• yes'in uhrevi eserlerinden biri.
  
  nasıl bir bestedir, nasıl bir düzenlemedir, o gitar nasıl bir gitardır, bas gitar bu kadar müthiş kullanılabilir mi, bu jon anderson bu dünyadan mıdır gibi yüzlerce soru sorarsınız kendinize her dinleyişte.

• eğer yıllar önce çalmayı bıraktığım klasik gitara dönüş yaparsam sebebi olacak olan yes şarkısı. şarkıyı çözdükten sonra gitarı tekrar zirvede bırakmayı düşünüyorum.

• hakkında bu kadar entry olmasına şaşırdığım (belki de şaşırmadığım?) yes şarkısı. her dinleyişimde tüylerimi diken diken eder. an itibariyle olduğu gibi.
