KIlburn High Roadd
John Head
From the track that hissed
From engine fast approaching
To the engines clipped-clopped
Rumbling heavily by
I want you
From the track that hissed great fears
Right out from me
Not great fears of great oblivions
Rumbled on by
I want you forever
I don’t know that you will be mine
But sometimes
From the clock that ticks the seconds
Out before me
To sweet flowers that sway in
Sunlight down the line
I want you forever
I don’t know that you will be mine
But sometimes
