Well I go a long way to the blame
Say what you will
Sing what you can
I'll be there to take your hand
Lead you to the promised land

Well I'd only be here on earth
28 years and my life up to then
Had taken a turn for the worst
Now I can't get my feet up off the g

His name is Godfrey Fletcher
Eleven years old
Worked these pits for nearly three years
Does not know the alphabet
Cannot read in the least"

The pit shall keep him body and soul
But better that than going to school
Or ploughing the field
Hot as any fire and brims

In a saxon room came close to you
And later hidden in the dark
In a shelter like a pleached bower
I talked to you, you talked to me

You spoke about a joint decision
Oh how I loved the way that word fell
From your lips
And later still we lay below the trees

A short visit to the shopping centre
A short visit to Earth
So if you found me
When did you lose me
When did the colours start to fade?
The kids are young
And we are old
I loved you

You were there or thereabouts
For a long time
I've been living in some k

Coming home away from you
This much is true
The empty days have gone
Coming back from the other side
The knowing lies
Kiss the days goodbye
And nothing ever changes
No nothing after all
We are burning
Because
Just because

Falling down from starlit sk

Driving over the wasteland
Coming over the rise
Where the light fades in broken trees
Under big empty skies
Did you wait for the fire
When the atom was burned
You could wait for forever now
As the question you asked
-Take me to your leader-
Is so sadly misplac

Wayland
Hammer and an anvil
And a stone
That passed away
So may this

We tear our children's hearts in pieces
There never was so many

Sorrow
Longing and the emptiness of all
The loss of everything

You may never find an answer
You may never feel

The boy Harry was the brightest thing
You’d ever hope to see
May looked young enough
To be his baby sister on the beach
He was Ptolemy’s Earth to her

For a while they knew how it might be
To conquer all the world
Then they grew old
Growing tired and tongue-tied<

Great God this is an awful place
Though sometimes her smile
Lights the emptiness
He lost his way it happens in blizzards
Or flames he said
Christ how the ice can burn

Great God this was an awful thing to waste
Sometimes her smile lights the emptiness
I rest my c

The sky was burning
Land and sky
Just a little bit
Or maybe way too high

If you will remember me
Don't matter what you're wishing for
'Cause it don't come true
We were way too far

It's not so far
The space between the Sun and stars
It's not so long

Come inside, you dreamed her
You know her now
Laid waste to her

Promise me this, she said
Promise me this
But what about us
Who gave for us

Dance with me 'midst orange trees
Where apple blossom kiss the breeze

Sometimes we were in love
But we never k

He waits for the word
The hard edged word
He is patient
In reach of a phrase
And the end of all time

Lines ran through the clouds
Like rain on a cold breeze
He was set free
He had learned to fly
In search of a fix
Pull back on the stick

He was alon

If you want I'll take you
To a distant planet away to the stars
If you want I'll take you
Away to the stars

There's being free
And there's being free
And she said to me
This isn't rocket science
This isn't rocket science
Why can't we make it work?
Try ho

I want you to be free
I want you to be free from me
I want you to be somewhere else
There's nothing more
There's nothing left
As you found out for yourself
You're losing your way
You should be gathering speed

Tell me do you know
The song of the hedgerow?
Coal for the winter
Ashes and cinders

Hey
Come on and see what I’ve found
Too many hours spent under the ground
Hey
Come on and see what I know
Get out in the fields
And out of the town o

Last stand, flyblown
When did we grow old
When did we learn that
In every goodbye there
Is a scene of death

None of the old rules apply
We're into the not knowing

Red curved roof
Now shedding its tiles
It's over

Footnote, endpiece
How did we get

Venetian expertise
Inspired by Titian
Which he modified
Fine tuned along dutch lines

He’s painting revenge
Embittered by lack of success

With signature techniques
Attention to details
And fine tell tale brushstrokes

End of the road he's travelling,
Waiting for trains that never ever come.
They've all gone.
End of the final day,
Light fades she moves away
To the north.
This will never come again.

Living on the line for all those years
Happy but if lonely.

Love is her thing
Because it helps her to believe
There's something to dream about
God, we all need something to dream about

I wish I could be a starshine
Wish I could be anything at all
Wish I could be a sunburst
Wish I could be anything at all
That would help

Of the fields and the sky
He used to build castles of stone
Steel and blood
But lines get broken down
