lost

well once i have been
to mary’s bathroom
and to georgia appletree’s
which was another

but i never seen a gal such as you
and i never touched a gal such as you

and there aren’t any railways
i been travelling up and down
there are no trains i been jumping on to
see my best friend’s wife

but last night i have been to your street
with my mind and my head full of weed

..

i never been in message wearing bottles
rowing over seas
there are only muddy old dirty waters
in my sea of pleas

that i send down there far from here
where i been told you once came from
when my thoughts turned from pink to pale blue
for that i once lost 
for that i once lost 
for that i once lost my heart to you
