James Joyce
Lover to Lover (for Syd Barrett)

Bright cap and streamers
He sings in the hollow:
Come follow, come follow
All you that love
Leave dreams to the dreamers
That will not after
That song and laughter
Do nothing move
With ribbons streaming
He sings the bolder;
In troop at his shoulder
The wild bees hum
And the time of dreaming
Dreams is over – -
As lover to lover
Sweetheart, I come

Lean out of the window
Goldenhair
I hear you singing
A merry air
My book was closed
I read no more
Watching the fire dance
On thе floor
I have left my book
I have lеft my room
For I heard you singing
Through the gloom
Singing and singing
A merry air
Lean out of the window
Goldenhair
