Laugh, we're laughing, we've fixed up the cracks that threatened to wear us out. So meet me uptown, we owe ourselves a night at the discotheque of delights. You laugh I love it, I love it when you smile, you make me feel I've done something wild. And those foolish things we did, I swear we'll never do them again, that day is done. You come to me and rock my simple world. The way you look, the way you undress, the way you stopped smoking cigarettes. So we get closer, and then we mess about, and that journey home on our knees. My head's still hurting, but I see through the fog that there's someone I so want to please. And those foolish things we did, we swore we'd never drink again. I whispered till you slept, and when we woke you didn't leave, you stayed for breakfast. We made it this far, let's make it further. Look to your heart now, does it flutter? With you I'm certain, with us I'm surer. You are my hope, you are my cure. This one's for you babe, this one's from the heart and you know how dark that gets. It's dumb, but dumb don't make it wrong, I so want to be with you. And those foolish things we did? You know I'd like to do them again, it felt so good to love someone the way we loved today. To love someone and not to be afraid. To hold you close and not be scared and maybe the gaming ends.

I've been a fan of KoD for years and I recently "Discovered" Oscar's Drum. A Cathedral Of Hands is a truly inspired album, it's been on heavy rotation since I first heard it. cabal468

Yes, Erik's description 'Space Western' is tops. It's as if John Wayne was conducting Pink Floyd, somehow, somewhere... String accompaniment's are beautiful and adds a sense of innocence. Dr. Beaf
