In The Wide Ruin - David Crosby

There was a city in this desert

Shining with fountains

And pools of clear sweet water

So many clouds of white birds soaring

It might have been the sea and there was music

Deep in the wild heart

Nothing ever changes

Deep in the wild heart

Nothing remains

A palace of stone

A tower of glass

Where bells of hammered brass rang the hours

Deep in the wild heart

Nothing ever changes

Deep in the wild heart

Nothing remains

Over the horizon

Into the majesty

As far as I can see

There is nothing of humanity

In all your windy spaces

There is no trace of us

I want to see a human heart

Show it to me, show it to me

Deep in the wild heart

Nothing ever changes

Deep in the wild heart

Nothing remains

Sleep wild heart

In the wide ruin
