Slender Threads

I saw your picture in the Evening Standard:
you were wearing your battle dress.
I really must confess
that I shed a silent smile for you -
it had really blown my mind,
I wonder, are you still so kind?
Are you still so pure?
There are other rhymes around here somewhere,
but I'm not sure how they fit...
Jenny, penny for your thoughts, I wonder how you're
thinking now;
I hesitate to visualise: our worlds are much too
different,
that's a sign of the times.
Time was when I read your cards
and wrote the numbers in the dust;
I can't remember what they were, but anyhow,
I missed the cusp
so, so long, and so, goodbye
Do you think I'll recognise you by your hair
or by you mind now?
We start out together
but the paths all divide:
when there areno more crossroads
I open my eyes
and find I'm walking on alone
through the snowy cold...
I wonder if I'll make it through the night?
I'm an author and an actor too;
you're a model in the zoo...
I'm just thinking on which side of the bars
I'm looking through.
If I prophesied an avalance
would you wait and call my bluff?
If I gave you just a little song
would that be enough
to save your life
or is the knife already turning in my hand?


Mirror lyrics:

or is the knife already turning in my hand?
to save your life
would that be enough
If I gave you just a little song
would you wait and call my bluff?
If I prophesied an avalance
I'm looking through.
I'm just thinking on which side of the bars
you're a model in the zoo...
I'm an author and an actor too;
I wonder if I'll make it through the night?
through the snowy cold...
and find I'm walking on alone
I open my eyes
when there areno more crossroads
but the paths all divide:
We start out together
or by you mind now?
Do you think I'll recognise you by your hair
so, so long, and so, goodbye
I missed the cusp
I can't remember what they were, but anyhow,
and wrote the numbers in the dust;
Time was when I read your cards
that's a sign of the times.
different,
I hesitate to visualise: our worlds are much too
thinking now;
Jenny, penny for your thoughts, I wonder how you're
but I'm not sure how they fit...
There are other rhymes around here somewhere,
Are you still so pure?
I wonder, are you still so kind?
it had really blown my mind,
that I shed a silent smile for you -
