(Jack Bruce and Pete Brown)
|
Wrapping paper in the gutter
|
Moving slowly as the wind on the sea,
|
(Faces calling, waves moving)
|
In your picture on a wall of a house of old times.
|
(Can you hear me) Can you hear me
|
(Can you hear me) Wandering sadly?
|
|
In the city, feeling pretty,
|
Down and out and making love to you on the shore,
|
(Ruined buildings, faces empty)
|
In the picture as I gaze ahead and don't see
|
(That they're calling) That they're calling.
|
(That they're calling) Wandering sadly.
|
|
Shattered windows, stairs to nowhere.
|
(Hear you calling) Hear you calling
|
(Hear you calling) As I wander so sadly.
|
|
Wish I knew what you'd done to me;
|
Turned me on to things I never knew.
|
It's all broken, weeds are growing.
|
Wish I was going home to the house by the shore
|
(Where you loved me) Where you loved me,
|
(Where you loved me) Loved me so sadly.
|
|
Someday I'll get back, somehow I'll do it.
|
I'll arrive there and you'll be there to meet me.
|
(Walk together, tread the weeds down)
|
Kiss again in the picture on the wall
|
(Where I loved you) In the old house.
|
(Where I loved you) Loved you so well.
