I’m lost in a crowd
I’m wanting to be found
I called out your name
But your answer never came.
You’re high on a cloud
You’ve left me on the ground
I’m searching in vain
But you’re on another plane.
Time to say goodbye, say goodbye.
Every night I see a candle flicker
Your shadow it climbs up the walls
I hear your thunder
Each night I dream
You’ve come to rescue me
I reach for your arms
And you pull me up above
And as I awake
To another lonely day
I realise that you don’t want me this way.
Time to say goodbye, say goodbye.
Every night I see a candle flicker
Your shadow it climbs up the walls
I hear your thunder
Should I join you in this place of wonder
This life is a chain now you’re gone
It pulls me under.
Time to say goodbye
Time to say goodbye
Time to say goodbye
Time to say goodbye
Just read this, by George Orwell. It was written when Orwell was a struggling writer in his twenties, he’s broke sleeping in bug-infested hostels and doss houses and working as a dishwasher in Paris. He is living with tramps and surviving on scraps and cigarette butts. He gives a personal and honest account of poverty in Paris and London from those times.
We were hanging in studio 223 this weekend. It’s an amazing archway in Waterloo that’s filled with Victorian furnishings and gifts from the Tongan embassy. We had a sing song on this beautiful piano :-)
