This is a cover of a song written by Brian Eno, titled "St. Elmo's Fire."
lyrics
brown eyes and i were tired
we had walked and we had scrambled
through the moors and through the briars
through the endless blue meanders
in the blue august moon
in the cool august moon
over the nights and through the fires
we went surging through the wires
through the towns and all the highways
through the storms and all their thundering
in the blue august moon
in the cool august moon
well we rested in the desert
where the bones were white as teeth, sir
and we saw st. elmo's fire
spitting ions in the ether
in the blue august moon
in the cool august moon
in the blue august moon
in the cool august moon
yeah in the blue august moon
in the cool august moon

Harmonies, how the album was produced, using a space (with all its foibles, and reflections) in a natural way that I really loved.
The songwriting and arrangements are deceptively simple on first blush. Stephen Falk
