Amid the rumours and the expectations
And all the stories dreamt and lived
Amid the clangour and the dislocation
And things to fear and to forgive
Don't forget
About delight
Y know what I'm saying to you
Don't forget
About delight
Y know
Amid the post-ironic postulating
And the poets' pilfered rhymes
Meaning feels like it's evaporating
Out of sight and out of mind
Don't forget
About delight
Y know what I'm saying to you
Don't forget
About delight

With no friend to take your side
On the endless road afoot and empty-handed
Where the wild-eyed Cossacks ride
Don't forget
About delight
Y know what I'm saying to you
Don't forget
About delight
Y know
Spring birds peck among the pressed-down grasses
Clouds like zeppelins cross the sky
Anger drips and pools and then it passes
And I say a prayer that I
Don't forget
About delight
Y know what I'm saying to you
Don't forget
About delight
Y know
