(Tennant/Lowe)

-----------------
3
By the cathedral
4
into the sun
5
pilgrims are singing
6
their journey done
7
I look at my short life and think
8
of all the champagne that I drink
9
with all the faces that I know
10
and how much further can one go?
11
And if I decide
12
to step aside
13
I will try to reply to
14
the feelings I hide
15
I look from my window
16
down to the square
17
at workers still queuing
18
patiently there
19
for market forces to provide
20
what history's so far denied
21
for a different kind of fate
22
than to labour long and always wait
23
And if I decide
24
to step aside
25
I will try to return to
26
the person inside
27
Will I always need you?
28
Would you want me to?
29
Can you love me for good
30
the way you thought you could?
31
Or will spring bring rain and summer burn?
32
Will tears at last precede the turn
33
from summer warmth to sudden cold
34
as certainly as growing old?
35
And if I decide
36
to step aside
37
I will try to forget all
38
the tears I'll have cried
