My mind is a night garden Heavy with shadow it stares Your eyes adjust to the dark All the eastern girls Are wondering back from Saint Martins Skin all pale I'm sold out in every department Got nothing left for the world Eyes won't adjust to the light But all the eastern girls They arrive like a king's pardon To the sound of bells

Only just getting to know you Running the flag up to claim it Acted like I was you saviour The shepard instead of the lamb... Been walking around with my eyes closed Keeping away from your windows Fearful eviction horizons When you took my life in your hands...
