Peter Hammill - I Once Wrote Some Poems lyrics

Your rating:

standing by rivers of reflected light:
my thoughts were on being loved and yet unloved, too -
I surrendered to the warmth of the night.
		And now I feel like dying,
		and if the water were still here, it would
				hold me close.

I once wrote a poem while walking on gravestones,
as cobbles, rain and tear lashed down my face....
I then felt my whole world was fading
as memories jostled and fell into place.
		And now I feel like dying,
		and the pain of old fires still burns.

I never wrote poems when I bit my knuckles
and Death started slipping into my mouth...
but that was really a long time ago,
and I'm not writing poems now.
		And though I don't feel quite like dying,
		there is something deep inside me
				softly crying.

And though I don't feel quite like dying
there is something deep inside me softly....
