Versuri

  
By the cathedral into the sun 
Pilgrims are singing, their journey done 
I look at my short life and think 
Of all the champagne that I drink 
With all the faces that I know 
And how much further can one go? 
 
And if I decide to step aside 
I will try to reply to the feelings I hide 
 
I look from my window down to the square 
At workers still queueing patiently there 
For market forces to provide 
What history's so far denied 
For a different kind of fate 
Than to labour long and always wait 
 
And if I decide to step aside 
I will try to return to the person inside 
 
Will I always need you? Would you want me to? 
Can you love me for good the way you thought you could? 
 
Or will spring bring rain and summer burn? 
Will tears at last precede the turn 
From summer warmth to sudden cold 
As certainly as growing old? 
 
And if I decide to step aside 
I will try to forget all the tears I'll have cried
