lirik lagu peter sinfield - still
still i wonder how it is to be a stream,
from a dark well constant flowing,
winding seawards over ancient mossy wheels
yet feel no need of knowing?
still i wonder how it is to be a tree,
circled servant to the seasons,
only drink on sky and rake the winter wind
and need no seal of reasons?
still i wonder why i wonder why i’m here
all my words just the shaft of my flail
as i race o’er this beautiful sphere
like a dog who his chasing his . . .
tailors and tinkers, princes and incas,
sailors and sinkers, before me and like me . . .
still i wonder how it is to be a bird,
singing each dawns sweet effusions;
flying far away when all the world has stirred
yet seek no vain conclusions . . . . . .
still i wonder if i p-ssed some time ago
as a bird, or a stream, or a tree?
to mount up high you first must sink down low
like the changeable tides of the
caesars and pharoahs, prophets and heroes,
poets and hobos, before me and after me all the
painters and dancers, mountainside chancers,
merchants and gamblers, bankers and ramblers,
winners and losers, angels and boozers,
beatles and bolans, raindrops and oceans,
kings, p-wns and deacons, fainthearts and beacons,
caesars and pharoahs . . . . . .
