《Shades Off (Poem)》歌词

[00:00:00] Shades Off (Poem) - Ian Hunter

[00:00:01] Where do you go

[00:00:03] When you've somewhere to run

[00:00:06] But the time isn't right

[00:00:08] And there's things to be done

[00:00:10] And you're trapped half-way up

[00:00:14] You don't want to go back

[00:00:16] So you keep going on

[00:00:19] Compromising the lack

[00:00:22] And you see the green fields

[00:00:24] As you travel on by

[00:00:26] And you look at the things

[00:00:27] You'd forgotten to try

[00:00:30] And you wish you were young

[00:00:31] And you wish you were old

[00:00:34] For the songs always sung

[00:00:36] And the stories been told

[00:00:40] And you thought you were different

[00:00:42] But what did it mean

[00:00:44] For you tricked yourself trying

[00:00:47] Life's still unseen

[00:00:50] As it is as it was

[00:00:53] As it always will be

[00:00:56] Will you find out

[00:00:57] At all what it is to be free

[00:01:01] See it never was easy to live with a head

[00:01:03] So I kept to the back room

[00:01:06] And I live there instead

[00:01:09] What comes from the front-room

[00:01:10] Is only for friends

[00:01:13] I have a bay window

[00:01:16] But that's where it ends

[00:01:20] And it's here I see pictures

[00:01:21] And my madness is clear

[00:01:24] And there's no longer logic

[00:01:25] So therefore no fear

[00:01:30] And I'm almost dead

[00:01:31] With uncontrollable light

[00:01:35] Sometimes when I've written a song

[00:01:37] It's alright
