Walk Amongst His Ruins

歌詞

So many people analyse , try to understand Some people laugh and denigrate, dismiss him out of hand I have lived in wonder, at his ramblin' and his doings Just for one day, I'd like to walk amongst his ruins Some take him very seriously, and never got the joke And never see the truth, in all the fun he pokes poke poke Since I was a boy, and heard the strange crooning And just for one day, I'd like to walk amongst his ruins Painful things laid bare in a simple turn of phrase Like a faithful friend you've never met, you've known him all your days Sometimes as I drive along, he grates on my ears Other times he catches me, reduces me to tears Yes I have lived in wonder, at his ramblings and his doings Just for one day, I'd like to walk amongst his ruins Such a naughty, naughty boy, as boys often are Although he so elusive, he's never very far Last time I saw him can't remember what I was doing I just recall thinking, what a brilliant ruin
