Procol Harum - Crucifiction Lane Lyrics
(trower / reid)Youd better listen anybody, cos Im gonna make it clearThat my life is unimportant; what Ive done I did through fearTheres a river running through me: on its tide I tried to hideNonetheless I could not shake it, and in the end it swept asideAll my feeble unimportance. I cant say it, never mindCant you hear me mother calling you? Im cold, Im deaf, Im blindAnd if only cos youre lucky, we both know thats no findI did think Id be an actor. what I am Ill leave behindYoud better listen anybody, cos its me and you --thats itAnd in case you find your maker perhaps youll plead for us a bitAll my sick is in my stomach, all my sweat is clearly fearAnd if you could see inside me I dont think youd have me hereTell the helmsman veer to starboard, bring this ship around to portAnd if the sea was not so salty I could sink instead of walkAnd in case of passing strangers who are standing where I fellTell the truth: you never knew me, and in truth its just as well
