Van Der Graaf Generator - Octopus Lyrics
I want to paint you poems full of fire,you who I do not know.Now my mind is tested with love whichtwists and wavers from side to side and whichsome day soon you may see... I want you to cascade through ten thousand rainbows with me and dredge mountains from the sea:you who I now begin to know.But emotion is pent up inside,too scared of dying again to live,and meanwhile I must endure your red-copper hair screaming like a water-baby black eyes stare from my ceiling:you who I now truly know...Now I cannot see too clearlyand already my trellis stands bare...How can I break free of these overclingingarms which entwine and enfold me?... And reachto the clear blue sea? I want you to know, but how can I tell you? I want you to see but my own eyes are blind...The Octopus now enfolds me,I know you too well...
