《Yoga》歌词

[00:00:00] Yoga - Peter Hammill

[00:00:20] On Tuesdays

[00:00:21] She used to do yoga

[00:00:25] While I'd sit

[00:00:26] And watch the box

[00:00:29] In a vegetable way

[00:00:32] But always ready to say

[00:00:35] To myself that I was an artist

[00:00:40] Implying that she was not

[00:00:48] It's funny the way that self pity

[00:00:53] Can take over from self esteem

[00:00:58] Well I was the prince of pride

[00:01:01] And though I'd cheat I never lied

[00:01:04] As if that were enough to make her happy

[00:01:08] As if that could satisfy her dreams

[00:01:16] Too late now to say that I'm so sorry

[00:01:22] Too late to say that I can change and mend

[00:01:27] The things that hurt

[00:01:28] She didn't need to worry

[00:01:31] She always knew I'd get there in the end

[00:01:39] Now I'm tying myself up in contortions

[00:01:44] Don't know if yoga will do me any good

[00:01:49] It's about time I tried

[00:01:51] Though I'd rather be inside from the cold

[00:01:56] Studying tantra

[00:01:59] Still I never did that when I could

[00:02:26] I never did the things that really mattered

[00:02:31] There seemed to be some key I couldn't find

[00:02:35] To unlock myself

[00:02:38] I could have done it with her help

[00:02:40] But I was too busy scrabbling for each moment

[00:02:45] Now I don't know what I did with all the time

[00:02:53] Sometimes I'd play the wild rover

[00:02:59] Sometimes I'd just get smashed all day

[00:03:03] On Tuesdays she used to do yoga

[00:03:08] On Tuesday she went away
