Fear of Woman Songtext

von Jackie Leven

I was not ready
To go with you
I was uncertain
What could I do ?

I see your picture
Now I understand
I see loneliness
That gathers in your hand

In poor condiction
Through frosted fields
I labour sunwards
My life is pale

My shadow tumbles
Down the river bank
I fear the icy water
Where the young boy sank

'Oh my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long lonely time
And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine ?
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me'

I walked through Glasgow
In the freezing gloom
To my heartless hotel
And my dying room
My life is over
I just count the days
But there are moments of terror
I can't erase
