Roy Harper - Short And Sweet lyrics
[Roy Harper - Short And Sweet lyrics]
You ask what is the quality of life
Seeking to justify the part you play
And mask, what seems a worthless fate
To strive, to make it any more or
Less than short and sweet
And you, you are a fantasy, a view
From where you'd like to think
The world should see
Be true and you will likely find a few
Building a vision new and
Justice to your time
And we, we, the immoral men, we dare
Naked and fearless in the elements
We're free, carefree from tempting fates
Aware and holding off the moral
Nightmare at the gates in the garden
But short, short is from you to me, as close
As we all hope to try to help it be
We're caught watching the dark in the sky
Who knows? Helpless as time it'self to hold
The time of day
And sweet, sweet as a mountain stream
Beholds
Toward a new day breaking in the east
We'll meet as every future dream unfolds
And surely quality it is at very least
At very least
Seeking to justify the part you play
And mask, what seems a worthless fate
To strive, to make it any more or
Less than short and sweet
And you, you are a fantasy, a view
From where you'd like to think
The world should see
Be true and you will likely find a few
Building a vision new and
Justice to your time
And we, we, the immoral men, we dare
Naked and fearless in the elements
We're free, carefree from tempting fates
Aware and holding off the moral
Nightmare at the gates in the garden
But short, short is from you to me, as close
As we all hope to try to help it be
We're caught watching the dark in the sky
Who knows? Helpless as time it'self to hold
The time of day
And sweet, sweet as a mountain stream
Beholds
Toward a new day breaking in the east
We'll meet as every future dream unfolds
And surely quality it is at very least
At very least
