Didn't Feel Lonely Till I Thought Of You

Kevin Ayers

Woke up this morning

I went out on the street

Sniffed a few flowers then I went back to sleep

My head was cloudy but the sky was blue

And I didn't feel lonely till I thought of you



Later that evening I knocked on your door

Asked how you're feel ing

You said you weren't sure

Took off your costume and you lay on the bed

And I came down beside you with the moon in my head



I whispered nothing sweetly in your ear

I played the music that you like to hear

I held you tightly but you slipped right through

And I was left holding someone but I didn¡¯t know who



Maybe I'm crazy and I'm lost in a dream

Brothers and sisters you know what I mean

You leave things open and get lost in the space

And you have to keep running to keep out of this race
