I feel the magic that our time has traced
And make a point of it in every place.
But every place deserves a curse or two,
For making me so far away from you.
I saw some pictures of the world at war,
I couldn`t suss what all the fuss was for.
I wear a picture of you wearing black,
And kissing me behind the butler`s back.
Sometimes I get down,
But it`s not you that gets me down,
It`s just that sense of the impossible,
Gratuitously handed down.
But oh no, not you, don`t wipe your eyes over lies,
Just let them shine their blue,
On every whisper that welcomes the inconceivable
And the birth of the true.
I`d sack the world and make a second start,
I`d sack my head until I`d found my heart,
I`d fill the distance with a red parade,
And burn the banks down while the bugles played.
Sometimes I get down,
But it`s not you that gets me down,
It`s just that sense of the impossible,
Gratuitously handed down.
But oh no, not you, don`t wipe your eyes over lies,
Just let them shine their blue,
On every whisper that welcomes the inconceivable
And the birth of the true
