To Step Aside |
By the cathedral, into the sun |
Pilgrims are singing, their journey done |
I look at my short life and think |
Of all the champagne that I drink |
With all the faces that I know |
And how much further can one go? |
And if I decide to step aside |
I will try to reply to the feelings I hide |
I look from my window, down to the square |
At workers still queueing patiently there |
For market forces to provide |
What history’s so far denied |
For a different kind of fate |
Than to labour long and always wait |
And if I decide to step aside |
I will try to return to the person inside |
Will I always need you? |
Would you want me to? |
Can you love me for good |
The way you thought you could? |
Or will Spring bring rain and Summer burn? |
Will tears at last precede the turn |
From Summer warmth to sudden cold |
As certainly as growing old? |
And if I decide to step aside |
I will try to forget all the tears I’ll have cried |
