She was long gone, long, long gone
She was gone, gone, the bigger they come
The larger her hand 'till no one understands
Why for so long she'd been gone.
And I stood very still by the window sill
And I wondered for those I love still
I cried in my mind where I stand behind
The beauty of love's in her eyes...
She was long gone, long, long gone
She was gone, gone, the bigger they come
The larger her hand 'till no one understands
Why for so long she'd been gone.
And I borrowed the page
From a leopard's cage
And I prowled in the evening sun's glaze
Her head lifted high to the light in the sky
The opening dawn on her face...
She was long gone long, long gone
She was gone, gone, the bigger they come
The larger her hand 'till no one understands
Why for so long she'd been gone.
And I stood very still by the window sill
And I wondered for those I love still
I cried in my mind where I stand behind
The beauty of love's in her eyes...
She was long gone, long, long gone
She was gone, gone, the bigger they come
The larger her hand 'till no one understands
Why for so long she'd been gone.
She was long gone long, long gone.
The lyrics LONG GONE of SYD BARRETT is also present in the album The madcap laughs (1970)
Roger Keith Barrett, noto come Syd Barrett, è stato un cantautore, chitarrista e compositore britannico, considerato uno dei pionieri del rock psichedelico. Nato a Cambridge nel 1946, Barrett fondò i Pink Floyd nel 1965 insieme a Nick Mason, Roger Waters e Richard Wright. Come frontman e principale autore delle prime canzoni del gruppo, contribuì in modo determinante al loro successo iniziale con album come "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" (1967), considerato un capolavoro del rock psichedelico. Barrett lasciò i Pink Floyd nel 1968 a causa di problemi di salute mentale, causati probabilmente dall'uso eccessivo di droghe. Dopo la sua uscita dal gruppo, Barrett continuò a registrare musica da solista, ma senza raggiungere il successo precedente. Nonostante la breve carriera con i Pink Floyd, Syd Barrett è rimasto un'icona del rock psichedelico e una figura leggendaria per le sue canzoni innovative e visionarie, come "Astronomy Domine", "See Emily Play" e "Interstellar Overdrive".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
