Robyn Hitchcock, The Venus 3 - NY Doll lyrics

I never finished the book
There's always someone to be loved
Or to be forgotten
But if you take a long look
Well there's always someone young and fresh
Or cold and rotten

One in a million people touch you
How do I explain? Sincerely I remain
Arthur Kane i was a New York Doll
I was really something on the map
That never ends i was the pulse of it all
But there's always poison to drink alone
Or to share with friends one in a million
People hit you like a window pane
Sincerely I remain arthur Kane

I found myself in the church
I needed something
Bigger than the world I knew
But in the library of your memory
People live in their books
Till the pages close
Close on me like they're gonna close on you

One in a million people matter
Then they go again sincerely I remain
Arthur Kane arthur Kane
