Loyalty |
Well you called me |
Telephone ringing in the night |
And you asked me if I was alright |
Like an afterthought, an oversight |
And I stood so surprised |
Trying to hold on to my pride |
So close I could hear your low sigh |
I said I was fine, you said you were fine |
There’s a loneliness, I don’t lose sight of it |
Like a high distant satellite |
One side in shadow, one in light |
But I didn’t mind to be alone that night in a city I’d never seen |
All these skyscrapers pooling on a prairie |
Built high and tall, as though they all compete |
Just to reach the darkness up above |
That once here had been |
Somewhere if there’s a beauty you had seen in me |
That I wanted somehow to believe |
Drift of sentiment and memory |
That I could not have, I could not keep |
No, it never did belong to me |
It was only ever another thing I would carry |
Still it held me, loyalty, to a feeling, to some glimpse |
Of a love that was only ever a kind of distance that we could not cross |
«Gather no moss» |
