Testament

And if you feel a presence in the room It’s only me, protectively observing I just forgot to tell you I’d be here From time to time Don’t be afraid. I’m only here to help I cannot wave or talk to you directly I only hope that something filters through Into your mind Oh-oh it’s just a primitive conceit Designed to aid the injured heart And give us meaning when we’re gone So when we say we’ll never part We won’t And if your eyes alight on someone new And you believe he’s decent and respectful Then do not stop to think what I would say If I could speak I-I don’t wanna see what happens next So I shall turn my head away For it’s inevitably bleak And it can only end in vexed dismay And if you feel a presence in the room It’s only me, protectively observing I just forgot to tell you I’d be there From time to time
