Ophelia Lyrics

That token drag on your cigarette
That well known face in the fire
It could be someone you can't forget

That token drag on your cigarette
That well known face in the fire
It could be someone you can't forget
Someone you've learned to admire

And it's strange
How the feeling goes
All change
Down the river Ophelia goes

You're treading water, the price is steep
You say you'll cope with it all
You've made some promises you can't keep
You throw yourself against the wall

You throw yourself against the wall
You throw yourself against the wall

And it's strange
[ Peter Hammill Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
How the feeling goes
All change
Down the river Ophelia goes

You heard a noise in the fire grate
You look to see who goes there
It's just the stranger, he's come too late
And even he's unprepared to find the cupboard so bare

It's so strange
When the feeling goes
All change
Down the river Ophelia goes

It's so strange
When the feeling goes
All change
Down the river Ophelia goes
