Relics

Arnold Layne had a strange hobby

Collecting clothes

Moonshine washing line

They suit him fine



On the wall

Hung a tall mirror

Distorted view

See through baby blue

He hates it



Oh, Arnold Layne

It's not the same

Takes two to know

Two to know

Two to know

Two to know

Why can't you see?

Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne

Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne



Now he's caught

A nasty sort of person

They gave him time

Doors band

Chain gain

He hates it



Oh, Arnold Layne

It's not the same

Takes two to know

Two to know

Two to know

Two to know

Why can't you see?

Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne

Arnold Layne

Arnold Layne don't do it again

Emily tries but misunderstands

She often inclined

To borrow somebody's dreams 'till tommorow



There is no other day

Let's try it another way

You'll lose your mind and play

Free games for may

See Emily play



Soon after dark

Emily cries

Gazing through trees in sorrow

Hardly a sound 'till tommorow



There is no other day

Let's try it another way

You'll lose you mind and play

Free games for may

See Emily play



Put on a gown

That touches the ground

Float on a river for ever and ever

Emily



There is no other day

Let's try it another way

You'll lose your mind and play

Free games for may

See Emily play

Remember a day before today

A day when you were young

Free to play along with time

Evening never comes



Sing a song that can't be sung

Without the morning's kiss

Queen, you shall be it if you wish

Look for your king

Why can't we play today?

Why can't we stay that way?



Climb your favourite apple tree

Try to catch the sun

Hide from your little brother's gun

Dream yourself away

Why can't we reach the sun?

Why can't we blow the years away?



Blow away

Blow away

Remember

Remember

Last night I had too much to drink

Sitting in a club with so many fools

Playing to rules

Trying to impress but feeling rather empty

I had another drink



What a way to spend that evening

They all turn up with their friends

Playing the game

They're in the scene I should have been

Far away



Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before

I open the door to an empty room

Then I forget



The telephone rings and someone speaks

She would very much like to go

Out to a show

So what can I do

I can't think what to say

She sees through anyway



Out of the front door I go

Traffic's moving rather slow

Arriving late

There she waits looking very angry

As cross as she can be



Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before

I open the door to an empty room

Then I forget

Sunlight bright upon my pillow

Lighter than an eider down

Will she let the weeping willow

Wind his branches round?



Julia dream

Dreamnight queen

Queen of all my dreams



Every night I turn the light out

Waiting for the velvet bride

Will the scaled armadillo

Find me where I'm hiding?



Julia dream

Dreamnight queen

Queen of all my dreams



Will the misty master break me?

Will the key unlock my mind?

Will the following footsteps catch me?

Am I really dying?



Julia dream

Dreamnight queen

Queen of all my dreams

Julia dream

Dreamnight queen

Queen of all my dreams

Julia dream

Dreamnight queen

Queen of all my dreams

Julia dream

Dreamnight queen

Queen of all my dreams

Wasting my time

Resting my mind

And I'll never pine

For the sad days

And the bad days

When we was working from nine to five

And if you don't mind

I'll spend my time

Here by the fireside

And the warm light

And the lvoe in her eyes 

And if you don't mind

I'll spend my time

Here by the fireside

And the warm light

And the love in her eyes
