CORRECT LYRICS
Lyrics : There’s a Certain Slant of Light
There’s a certain slant of light
On winter afternoons
That oppresses, like the weight
Of cathedral tunes
Heavenly hurt it gives us;
We can find no scar
But internal difference
Where the meanings are
None may teach it anything
‘T is the seal, despair, –
An imperial affliction
Sent us of the air
When it comes, the landscape listens
Shadows hold their breath;
When it goes, ‘t is like the distance
On the look of death
On winter afternoons
That oppresses, like the weight
Of cathedral tunes
Heavenly hurt it gives us;
We can find no scar
But internal difference
Where the meanings are
None may teach it anything
‘T is the seal, despair, –
An imperial affliction
Sent us of the air
When it comes, the landscape listens
Shadows hold their breath;
When it goes, ‘t is like the distance
On the look of death
