Goodbye To All That
(music: marillion lyrics: steve hogarth & john helmer)
They try to trace her in the town
Appeal for information on the local news
Someone must have missed her by now
A mother or a father or a friendly face to talk her down
Shes heading for the great escape
Heading for the rave
Heading for the permanent holiday ...
(I) wave
Hold your breath ... till you feel it begin ...
Here it comes ...
Do you feel that? ...
... feel this?
Get used to it ...
She had the face of the statue of liberty
Oh free me
The fire and ice of amazon and eskimo
Take me home
The edge and glance of high fashion
Ask me about next year ...
(ii) made
Tell me Im mad
How should I know?
Tell me Im mad
I have been here for so long ...
Help me paint a picture
They say its a lie
Tell me Im mad!
Youre a fine one to decide
Burn me in the fires of wild heaven
Like it never would stop
Tell me Im mad
Tell me I imagined that ...
Was it something I didnt say?
Or was it something I said
Leave that stuff alone
Use me instead
I know Im always falling off the edge of the world
I got space in my bed
(off with his head! ... clearly, hes mad)
Youve got egypt in your head
Ive got a headful of troy
Chandeliers and charlemagne
Fireworks and toys
(iii) the opinum den
But you sleep like a ghost with me
Its as simple as that
So tell me Im mad
Roll me up and breathe me in
Come to my madness
