| Lyrics |
Your father has just left your mother,gone off to live with his latest lover:she sits there, just staring.
So you get back to your own flatbecause the atmosphere in thereis so bad you can't bear it.
And the people you were going to America withjust left on the dawn planewithout you,without you.
The people in the downstairs flatare no longer there now because they leftthe gas tap on, they're all dead.
So you've no-one left to talk to,you just lie there in melancholy,half-naked on your unmade bed.
And the people you were going to Africa withjust left on the Southern Starwithout you,without you.
Yes, the haze that's been forming round your window-panesis now protracted and poisonedand you cannot feel a portion of the world outside.
Can you imagine the way you'd feelif all these things had happened to youand the doctor says you're dying?
That is the way that I feel nowon finding that your love belongsto someone else and not I.
My chance of heaven has just blown awayupon a passing cloud and there is nothing that I can dowithout you.
The people you were going tohave left, gone far awayand you're lonely.------------------------------------------------------------------
