lyrics

6. Nosediving into the night

Girl you are right I am nose diving, nose diving into the night
I abandoned my pistols in Croydon, I felt I was too old for the fight.
The last time I sang I summoned the muse but she was busy watching a soap on TV
my answer was smoking and drinking until the feeling made its way back to me
Oh the preacher was pissed, he said Christ would desist to lead me anywhere near the light,
I said I’m so so sorry padre, I’m nose-diving into the night.


The doctor said I was shattered, he claimed forty was the time to collapse
But sofas were not of my liking and I was fond of the wounds of the heart
I went to Texas and Spain, travelled to Chile and France just to get a taste of the bars
And then in the back streets London I found what I knew was my art,
And my lovers they claimed, I was broken and lame, I was lost to the caves of my mind,
But I was convinced about something, nose-diving into the night.


Oh what I lost I know can find
I am not looking for another distant sky
All that I want, all I can decide, is nose-diving, nose-diving into the night.


Sometimes the bottle will beat me when I am searching for ribbons and smiles,
searching for the nozzle of longing and a walk in the outskirts of time,
And though the president says we all have to work in a factory out there in Hull,
I think he is bent on colliding with the rights of any civilised man
And the notary was mad, he said mortgage and tax would make me a true English man, I said keep your title mister, I’m still nose-diving into the night.


Oh what I lost I know can find
I am not looking for another distant sky
All that I want, all I can decide, is nose-diving, nose-diving into the night.
