Voyager - Momus

In the garden I forget who I am

There are daffodils and the motorway’s jammed

And my love for you is so new

But the weather’s wrong

I’m doing nothing, really not much at all

Just predictable things

Watching leaves as they fall

In the springtime in my flat

Satellites send pictures through the night

The moon is hot, I can’t do anything

And I watch Voyager flying blind

Through unimaginable space and time

Endlessly on TV

I’m alone again and the Watchman is on

In a feature film I hear a beautiful song

These days I cry a lot, perhaps I try

I don’t know why

I’ve got a newspaper, I’ve read it all through

The world is strange today, all the news is so good

And my hair has got so blond

As I stare at my reflections in the pond

And the trees have died

And I go inside

And I watch Voyager flying blind

Through unimaginable space and time

Endlessly

(I'm just trying to get out of the rain)

Hold me love I cannot catch my breath

This fear of love is choking me to death

I can’t live without you I can’t live with you

I wriggle and I turn

Tell me when will I ever learn?

When the wind blows

On the stems of the flowers

I feel sorry for them

And I fetch them indoors

And my love for you is so new

And there’s so much left to do

But there are thunderstorms

And the weather’s wrong

(I'm just trying to get out of the rain)

(I'm just trying to get out of the rain)

Can’t live without you, I can’t live with you

I wriggle and I turn

(I'm just trying to get out of the rain)

I can’t live without you, I can’t live with you

When will I ever learn?

I can’t live without you I can’t live with you

I wriggle and I turn

Tell me when will I ever learn?
