What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I saw your picture in the Evening Standard:
2
You were wearing your battle dress.
3
I really must confess
4
That I shed a silent smile for you -
5
It had really blown my mind,
6
I wonder, are you still so kind?
7
Are you still so pure?
8
There are other rhymes around here somewhere,
9
But I'm not sure how they fit...
10
Jenny, penny for your thoughts, I wonder how you're
11
Thinking now;
12
I hesitate to visualize: our worlds are much too
13
Different,
14
That's a sign of the times.
15
Time was when I read your cards
16
And wrote the numbers in the dust;
17
I can't remember what they were, but anyhow,
18
I missed the cusp
19
So, so long, and so, goodbye
20
Do you think I'll recognize you by your hair
21
Or by you mind now?
22
We start out together
23
But the paths all divide:
24
When there are no more crossroads
25
I open my eyes
26
And find I'm walking on alone
27
Through the snowy cold...
28
I wonder if I'll make it through the night?
29
I'm an author and an actor too;
30
You're a model in the zoo...
31
I'm just thinking on which side of the bars
32
I'm looking through.
33
If I prophesied an avalanche
34
Would you wait and call my bluff?
35
If I gave you just a little song
36
Would that be enough
37
To save your life
38
Or is the knife already turning in my hand?
