Walk Amongst His Ruins |
So many people try to analyse |
Try to understand |
Some people laugh and denigrate |
Dismiss him out of hand |
I have lived in wonder |
At his ramblin' and his doings |
Just for one day I’d like to walk amongst his ruins |
Some take him seriously and never got the joke |
And never see the truth in all the fun he pokes |
Since I was a boy and heard the strange crooning |
And just for one day I’d like to walk amongst his ruins |
Painful things laid bare with a simple turn of phrase |
Like a faithful friend you’ve never met |
You’ve known him all your days |
Sometimes as I drive along |
He grates on my ears |
Other times he catches me |
Reduces me to tears |
Yes I have lived in wonder at his ramblings and his doings |
Just for one day I’d like to walk amongst his ruins |
Such a naughty, naughty boy |
As boys often are |
Although he so elusive |
He’s never very far |
Last time I saw him I can’t remember what I was doing |
Just recall thinking what a brilliant ruin |
