Paroles de Terry & Julie
Terry and Julie cross over the riverGladdened again by the sight of each other
They’re famed for their simplicity
And it is their song that providence shuffles
Onto my lips between splutters and sniffles
Outstaying my welcome on the earth
Oh, what a century!
To live and reign
You kneel down to navigate
The length and the breadth of a prayer
Long have you languished in there.
Terry and Julie admire the sunset
But a song removed, it’s not quarter to one yet
Though the days pass like a second hand
Here in the front room, hooked to a contraption
You do my ablutions and block my distraction:
A grey matinée movie
Oh, what a century!
To slip one’s chain
The mother of mortals
Constant and stable and scared But nobody’s in the know
Nobody’s in my confidence.
Oh, what a century!
To live and reign
You kneel down to navigate
The length and the breadth of a prayer
Long have you languished in there.
Terry and Julie admire the sunset
But a song removed, it’s not quarter to one yet
Though the days pass like a second hand
Here in the front room, hooked to a contraption
You do my ablutions and block my distraction:
A grey matinée movie
Oh, what a century!
To slip one’s chain
The mother of mortals
Constant and stable and scared But nobody’s in the know
Nobody’s in my confidence.
