Gene Clark      From A Silver Phial     written by Gene Clark

                      
A refuse from a silver phial
                                 
Put her faith  into the moons and stars
                              
She said she had a mind   that slept inside tomorrow
                              
And time could only  heal it's scars
                         
She was fire  on the borderline
                        
The lion in the  fall of roles
                         
Said she saw the sword of sorrow sunken
                        
In the sand of searching souls
                        
Sleeping in the master's room
                          
Seeing through his eye for gain
                    
Keeping by his side  not to be a victim
                        
Falling in the darkened  rain

SOLO

                          
She was taken from a cruel storm
                        
The refuse from a silver phial
                       
Took her magic master's words and sung
                               
And made  his lower self worth while
                        
Sleeping in the master's room
                          
Seeing through his eye for gain
                    
Keeping by his side  not to be a victim
                              
Falling in the darkened  rain
