You’re Still On My Mind

The days are getting shorter
And the air is getting colder
The rain is getting harder
And I feel like I’m getting older
And I can’t imagine a warm breath of wind upon my face
I can’t imagine sitting in a green and shady place
With some sunrays on my shoulders

BUT YOU, YOU’RE STILL ON MY MIND
BUT THERE’S NO WAY I CAN FIND
OF PUTTING THOSE FEELINGS BEHIND ME

Cars in the street are choking
My breath freezes on the window
People moving off in the morning
There’s a plastic voice on the radio
And now I can’t see a summer’s morning beginning
I really can’t remember the feeling
Of waking with that summer chink of light upon my pillow

BUT YOU …

More trains are rattling in the dark
People hurry to get home
Christmas is coming round again
Nobody wants to be alone
And I’ve forgotten how it feels out on a summer’s night
With the bats in the air and the shimmer of the starlight
And the city in the distance with its faded orange glow
On the sky

BUT YOU …
