Lyrics
The Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock
** ( partly based on some words by T S Eliot) ***
Let us go then, You & I
Out when the evening meets the Sky
Like a patient etherized
Let us go then, You and I
He left the boy on the track
And I don?t think he?ll be comin? back
Hear the Voice die with a fall
No salvation after all.
In the rooms the women come & go
Talking of Michelangelo
But I know that I should be
Ragged Claws at the bottom of the Sea
He left the boy on the track
And I don?t think he?s comin back
Where you go now?
When you leavin?
Where you go now?
When you leave me to die?
There will be time and
There will be time
Time to Murder and Create
But this is not out fate
Getting Darker all the while.
In the Rooms the Women come and go
Talking of Michelangelo
Let us go then, You & I
Out when the evening meets the Sky
Like a patient etherized
Let us go then, You and I
Where you go now,
When you leave me?
Where you go now?
When you leave me to die? When you leave me to die.
