Songtext Another day Roy Harper

Another day

The kettle's on,
the sun has gone
another day
She offers me Tibetan tea
on a flower tray

She's at the door,
she wants to score
She dearly needs to say

I loved you a long time ago, you know
Where the wind's own forget-me-nots blow
But I just couldn't let myself go
not knowing what on earth there was to know.

But I wish that I had 'cause I'm feeling so sad
that I never had one of your children.

And across the room, inside a tomb
our chance is waxed and wanes
The night is young,
why are we so hung up
in each others chains?
I must take her,
I must make her
while the dove domains
and feel the juice run as she flies
run my wings under her sighs
as the flames of eternity rise
to lick us with the first born lash of dawn.

Oh really my dear
I can't see what we fear
Sat here with ourselves in between us.

And at the door
we can't say more
than just "another day"
and without a sound
I turn around
and I walk away.
