you know the volume as you're on the force
behind can't conquer all your fears
All your birds aren't really listening
tell them there is life with every morning
perhaps today you can when you answer me
it's clear, it's all nights warning
Atom heart mother ‘70
‘70
IF
If I were the swan, I'd be gone
if I were the train, I'd be late (again)
and if I were the good man
I'd talk with you more often than I do
If I were to sleep I could dream
if I were afraid I could hide
if I go insane
please don't put your wires in my brain
If I were the moon, I'd be cool
if I were the rule, I would bend
if I were a good man
I'd understand the spaces between friends
If I were alone, I would cry
and if I were with you, I'd be home and dry
and if I go insane
will you still let me join in with the game.
SUMMER '68
Would you like to say something before you leave
perhaps you'd care to state exactly how you feel
we say goodbye before we've said hello
I hardly even like you, I shouldn't care at all
we met just six hours ago, the music was too loud
from your bed I came today and lost a bloody year
and I would like to know, how do you feel
how do you feel
Not a single word we've said, the lights stay without fears
