Lyrics Robyn Hitchcock

Robyn Hitchcock

Autumn Sea

Somewhere in the autumn sea

The kind of love you are to me I stole you

>From a very special friend

So the friendship had to end and how

You can't kill relationships

Watch them drown like sinking ships around you

But to live is to betray

Every second, every day-Oh wow

Here comes the now

Soomewhere in the autumn air

I can smell you everywhere beside me

Though your face has disappeared

Finally I know I cared for you

As the leaf falls in the sea

Slips the sand of memory inside me

Rows of lights flash off and on

Finally I see you've gone

It's true

What can I do?

Somewhere in the autumn sky

Cross my heart and swear to die

I chose you

Trails burning everywhere

Sulphur fingers in the air

I scream

Brambles swarm around my fence

Everything in deep suspense

I froze you out

But it's your point of view

I am just somebody who has been

Into your dream
