<poem> | |||
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the sacred wunder-kind | |||
You took me behind a dis-used railway line | |||
And said: "I know a place where we can go where we are not known" | |||
And then you gave me something that I won't forget too soon | |||
But I can't believe that you'd ever care | |||
And this is why you will never care | |||
But these things take time | |||
And I know that I'm the most inept that ever stepped | |||
I'm spellbound but a woman divides | |||
And the hills are alive with celibate cries | |||
But you know where you came from | |||
You know where you're going and you know where you belong | |||
You said I was ill and you were not wrong | |||
But I can't believe that you'd ever care | |||
And so you never care | |||
But these things take time | |||
And I know that I'm the most inept that ever stepped | |||
Oh, the alcoholic afternoons | |||
When we sat in your room | |||
They meant more to me | |||
Than any, than any living thing on earth | |||
And they had more worth | |||
Than any living thing on earth, on earth, on earth, oh | |||
Vivid and in your prime | |||
You will leave me behind | |||
You will leave me behind | |||
