Lyrics

Ether

It's either ether or the other

My mind is back to front

And sometimes absent

And slip the cup

I've taken a sip from the cup

That slips into ether

It's either ether or the other

I press my window to the glass

The glass turns to gas

I breathe out ether, a glass of ether

Ether is a thief

It's stolen my belief

Slip through the ether

We both slip through the ether

Slipstreams of memory slipping away

It's ether

Betty May and Raoul Loveday

Betty May and Raoul Loveday

Betty May and Raoul Loveday

Slip through the ether

Sip the ether

Sip the ether

Slipstreams of memories slipping away

Slipstreams of memories slipping away

Memories of Fitzrovia slipping away

Into ether

Into ether

I've changed my mind

It's what it's there for

I've changed my mind

It's what it's there for

For therefore

Full of ether

Full of ether

Full of ether

Full of ether

Full of ether

I'm going upstairs now

To take my mind off

I'm going upstairs now

To turn my mind off

To turn my mind off

To turn my mind off

To turn my mind off

To turn my mind off

To turn my mind off

To turn my mind off
