歌曲 | Our Eyes Give It Shape |
歌手 | Peter Hammill |
专辑 | Singularity |
作词 : Hammill | |
I'm getting the idea, I haven't got a clue. | |
As my fabulous career ends up dead in the gutter | |
the stars are shining down right on cue. | |
It's not much of a shock, it comes as no surprise | |
that changing all the locks when the horses have bolted | |
is a useless exercise. | |
And play it how I will and say it as I may | |
I won't pick that poison pill as a effortless exit | |
from the Mystery Play. | |
I'm so glad I'm still here to see this, | |
the break of day at the end of the long dark night... | |
All's not as it appears, this tale has many twists – | |
but if I wasn't here documenting the story | |
would that mean that the plot did not exist? | |
Oh, would it not be absurd if there was no objective state? | |
What if the unobserved always waits, insubstantial, | |
till our eyes give it shape? | |
I'm so glad that I'm still here to see this, | |
the whole story is unfolding before my eyes; | |
I'm so happy I can barely believe it... | |
this simple pleasure is the mystery spice of life. | |
And I am happy just to breathe in the quality of the light. | |
I'm getting the idea, I'm seeing things anew, | |
it's all becoming clear at this delicate juncture | |
there can be no false nor true. | |
I want to have it all, I want to see the whole thing through... | |
It's a fifty fifty call: maybe Schrödinger's cat | |
could be the Cheshire one too? | |
I'm so glad that we're both here to see this: | |
the chink of light in the tunnel of love's embrace. | |
I'm so happy I can barely believe it | |
A simple pleasure in the simple things makes life great. |
