Pell Mell

Sixing and sevening
Ducking and diving in
Loving and leaving it and
Losing all your self
Into the outside
Out with the inside
Into the spaces that we keep
Between ourselves
For you there is
No hope at all

It goes down and down
You know it’s an easy ride
All the space that you see between us
No, we can’t hide

Wearing it lightly
Growing like topsy
Sleeping and waking up
And nothing inbetween
Out of the zone
And into the darkness
Walking a line between
The people at your side
With nothing to fear
But yourself

It goes down and down
You know it’s an easy ride
All the space that you see between us
No, we can’t hide

Ah you wear it lightly
When did we grow so
Old and frightened?
Ah you wear it softly
When did we grow so
Far away from ourselves?
Ah you wear it lightly
How did we ever get so scared?

It goes down and down
You know it’s an easy ride
All the space that you see between us
No, we can’t hide
We can’t hide
