Pillar to Post — текст песни (Aztec Camera)

Words and music by roddy frame





So you appear and say how Ive grown

And fill me up with faces Ive known.

In this light theyre far from divine

Ill save them up and spend them when I have time.



The salted taste of all your tears and woes

Sent me in haste my melancholy rose

Those tasteless lips were closed

You watched me come, youll see me go.



Once I was happy in happy extremes

Packing my bags for the path of the free

From pillar to post I am driven it seems

These bitter tokens are worthless to me



Just like june the curtains are closed

The ghost of shame he sits here and sighs

Ill love the flames like Ive loved the cold

Ill learn to love the life of the "could i, could i, could i"

So I dont cross my fingers any more

You looked for rags and found them at your door

How could you ask for more

Than everything youve heard before?



Once I was happy in happy extremes

Packing my bags for the path of the free

From pillar to post I am driven it seems

These bitter tokens are worthless to me
