Salad Days lyrics

Artist  : Procol Harum 
Song : Salad Days



 Send "Salad Days" Ringtone to your Cell 

 (brooker / reid)

You come to me at midnight and say, ’it’s dark in
here.’
You know you robbed me of my sight, and light is
what I fear
I tell you that I can not see but you persist in
showing me
Those bangles that I paid for long ago




And though my face is smiling I’m really feeling
low
And though you say you’re with me I know that
it’s not so
Your skin crawls up an octave, your teeth have
lost their gleam
The peaches snuggle closer down into the clotted
cream
And for some unknown reason my watch begins to
chime
And though I beg and plead with you, you tell me
it’s not time




And though my face is smiling I’m really feeling
low
And though you say you’re with me I know that
it’s not so
The sun seeps through the window to see if we’re
still dead
To try to throw some light upon the gloom around
our bed
At quarter past the doorbell rings, the water
faucet drips and sings
And still my reason will not rhyme, and still you
tell me it’s not time




And though my face is smiling I’m really feeling
low
And though you say you’re with me I know that
it’s not so
You really know that it’s not so
