Winter coming Winter push on (push on) Oh, winter push on
Winter is so long Winter moves on
The last night on Maudlin Street Goodbye house, goodbye stairs I was born here And I was raised here, and ...I took some stick here
Love at first sight It may sound trite But it´s true, you know I could list the detail Of everything you ever wore or said Or how you stood the day As we spent the last night On Maudlin Street "Goodbye house, forever!"
I never stole a happy hour Around here
Where the world´s ugliest boy Became what you see Here I am - the ugliest man Oh, the last night on Maudlin Street Truly I do love you Oh, truly I do love you
When I sleep With that picture of you framed beside my bed Oh, it´s childish and it´s silly But I think it´s you in my room, by the bed (...yes, I told you it was silly...)
And I know I took strange pills
But I never meant to hurt you Oh, truly I love you Came home late one night Everyone had gone to bed But, you know No-one stays up for you I had sixteen stitches All around my head
Oh, the last bus I missed to Maudlin Street So he drove me home in the Van Complaining, "Women only like me for my mind..." Don´t leave your torch behind A powercut ahead; 1972, you know
