Arthur Brown |
|
You should have seen him |
|
Lying alone in helpless silence in the night |
|
You should have seen him |
|
You would have seen his eye reflecting in the light |
|
So for the old man |
|
Ashes to ashes, earth to earth and dust to dust |
|
No one will see me |
|
No one with guilt to share, no secret soul to trust |
|
And he won't be found at all |
|
Not a trace to mark his fall |
|
Nor a stain upon the wall |
|
Louder and louder |
|
Till I could tell the sound was not within my ears |
|
You should have seen me |
|
You would have seen my eyes grow white and cold with fear |
|
Heard all the things in |
|
Heaven and |
|
Earth I've seen many things in |
|
Hell But his vulture's eye of a cold pale blue |
|
Is the eye if the |
|
Devil himself |
|
Take me away now |
|
But let the silence drown the beating of his heart |
|
I can't go on |
|
Let me be free from wretched sea that |
|
I can not see |
|
Please let me be free |
