THE LATE LAMENT
Listen to the Lament
Breathe deep the gathering gloom,
Watch lights fade from every room.
Bedsitter people look back and lament,
Another day's useless energy spent.
Impassioned lovers wrestle as one,
Lonely man cries for love and has none.
New mother picks up and suckles her son,
Senior citizens wish they were young.
Cold hearted orb that rules the night,
Removes the colours from our sight.
Red is grey and yellow white.
But we decide which is right.
And which is an illusion?
Listen to the Whole Album
Nights in White Satin
Moody Blues
I was 11 Years Old when I first heard this
It has been with me ever since...
AND WE DECIDE WHICH IS RIGHT
AND WHICH IS AN ILLUSION!!!!
