(Winwood/Capaldi)
|
|
Well, you told me you were sorry, when I needed your advice
|
And I was too confused to see the meaning
|
Like Peter, you disowned me with a voice as cold as ice
|
And before the fire died and they were leaving
|
|
I'm a means to an end and everybody's friend
|
To a richman, poorman, beggar man or thief
|
From my heart I send a messenger to bend
|
And take your mind from agony and grief
|
|
Oh, sweet silence without kings and queens
|
No one here has ever reached your centre
|
Better to be quiet than to speak without a thought
|
Or you may lose the meaning of your venture
