作词 : Glenister, Moyet It’s my song and I sing for the man in the wings Is it strange when we never have shared anything? I don’t ache for some tender exchange in the dark That will pass But the purest refrain will haunt us again And he has that with me When I’ve nothing to bring I sing for the man in the wings We won’t speak, he won’t ask me to follow him on And his name if I ever did know it is gone Back to back I can hear his pulse racing with mine Both in time I’ll be waiting for him before I begin each line And he won’t mind That I’ve nothing to bring When I sing for the man in the wings And they tell me he walks alone It is said that he is stone Without knowing the shape of him I am certain they are wrong We’ll meet in a different place Me, the man and the song I don’t long for some fleeting exchange in the dark That will pass But the purest refrain will haunt us again And he has that with me When we’ve nothing to bring I sing for the man in the wings
