The Incredible String Band - The Half-Remarkable Question lyrics

Who moved the black castle Who moved the white queen When Gimme and Daleth where standing between? Out of the evening growing a veil Pining for the pine woods that ached for the sail There's something forgotten I want you to know The freckles of rain they are telling me so Oh, it's the old forgotten question What is it that we are part of? And what is it that we are? And an elephant madness has covered the sun The judge and the juries they play for the fun They've torn up the roses and washed all the soap And the martyr who marries them dares not elope Oh, it's the never realized question What is it that we are part of? And what is it that we are? Oh long, oh long ever yet my eyes Braved the gates enormous fire And the body folded 'round me And the person in me grew The flower and its petal The root and its grasp The earth and its bigness The breath and its gasp The mind and its motion The foot and its move The life and its pattern The heart and its love Oh, it's the half-remarkable question What is it that we are part of? And what is it that we are?
