Orthenthian Street (Part Ii) lyrics

Artist: Van Der Graaf Generator
Album: Aerosol Grey Machine

(Hammill)

Can't stop for a second:
We might see how silly we all are
Can't get out, even for a moment:
Might be hit by a passing car
Dreams shatter and fall into dust
As long as we're travelling I suppose they must
But, while we're on the road, our days'll be glowing;
And when we part, as you know we must
We'll leave, just going
Ever so slowly
Ever so slowly

Motorway signs flash past like flies
It's getting late and we're going home
We all travel in parallel lines
Heading into the twilight zone
All I really want now is you by my side;
Yes, it's a sweet ride
While we're still together

Yes, it's a sunny day, and we're off on our sea trip;
The water may be cold in the bay
But we're safe on our sailing ship
And, if ice forms, you can walk home to land
And still cling to my hand
If you still want to..
