Procol Harum - Salad Days Lyrics
(brooker / reid)You come to me at midnight and say, 'it's dark in here.'You know you robbed me of my sight, and light is what i fearI tell you that i can not see but you persist in showing meThose bangles that i paid for long agoAnd though my face is smiling i'm really feeling lowAnd though you say you're with me i know that it's not soYour skin crawls up an octave, your teeth have lost their gleamThe peaches snuggle closer down into the clotted creamAnd for some unknown reason my watch begins to chimeAnd though i beg and plead with you, you tell me it's not timeAnd though my face is smiling i'm really feeling lowAnd though you say you're with me i know that it's not soThe sun seeps through the window to see if we're still deadTo try to throw some light upon the gloom around our bedAt quarter past the doorbell rings, the water faucet drips and singsAnd still my reason will not rhyme, and still you tell me it's not timeAnd though my face is smiling i'm really feeling lowAnd though you say you're with me i know that it's not soYou really know that it's not so
