peter hammill - how far i fell كلمات أغنية

(here’s the old man and his not-so-childlike bride;
here’s the humbling of us all, delusion never dies;
here’s the story: anyone can fall at any time at all
we’re born to be fools in life.)

i was the king of the mountain
i had everything that money couldn’t buy:
at the summit of ambition i was ready for the sky
i viewed the world from this, my citadel…
oh, how i fell

silent and sleeping, the volcano
so i thought that i stood square upon my feet
i ignored the warning tremors in my hubris, i repeat –
i never saw you coming, jezebel…
oh, how i fell

as i look back now on the tears i was to cry
i am holding on to the vestiges of pride
i am holding on, but i will never be the one to tell
how far i fell

(here’s the old man and his not-so-childlike bride;
here’s the humbling of us all, delusion never dies;
here’s the story: anyone can fall at any time at all
we’re born to be fools in life.)

a fool and his money are soon parted
and there’s nothing like an old fool, so they say:
once the plastic had been melted quickly you were on your way
leaving me drowning in the wishing-well –
oh, how i fell

you’ll never know how deep you cut me
although anyone can see the state i’m in
so i pay the price of such unoriginal sin…
but i will never bring myself to tell
how far i fell

- peter hammill
