I Shall Forever Remain an Amateur lyrics

Lately, white moon in the blue sky
You taunt me with your half-hearted smile
At once familiar
The melancholy pain
Of being again

And lately the rice grown at our feet
Has lost its solvency
We canter from field to wooden home
Avoiding splinters
We waiter here too long, too long, too long

Weightless we shall wonder on
So many have tried, so few have won
But the past is so seductive and
I shall forever remain an amateur

Lately the days have lost their names
The seasons ebb and change
The fireside backs have been washed clean
Revealing nothing but sunken shouldered dreams
Of being again

Graceless we shall wonder on
So many have tried, so few have won
But the past is so seductive and
I shall forever remain an amateur

And although I will try
I would rather be taking the reins than the wheel
