I saw your picture in the Evening Standard:
You were wearing your battle dress.
I really must confess
That I she'd a silent smile for you -
It had really blown my mind,
I wonder, are you still so kind?
Are you still so pure?
There are other rhymes around here somewhere,
But I'm not sure how they fit...
Jenny, penny for your thoughts, I wonder how you're
Thinking now;
I hesitate to visualise: our worlds are much too
Different,
That's a sign of the times.
Time was when I read your cards
And wrote the numbers in the dust;
I can't remember what they were, but anyhow,
I missed the cusp
So, so long, and so, goodbye
Do you think I'll recognise you by your hair
Or by you mind now?
We start out together
But the paths all divide:
When there areno more crossroads
I open my eyes
And find I'm walking on alone
Through the snowy cold...
I wonder if I'll make it through the night?
I'm an author and an actor too;
You're a model in the zoo...
I'm just thinking on which side of the bars
I'm looking through.
If I prophesied an avalance
Would you wait and call my bluff?
If I gave you just a little song
Would that be enough
To save your life
Or is the knife already turning in my hand?
Peter Joseph Andrew Hammill (born August 19, 1948) is a British singer-songwriter, keyboardist, and multi-instrumentalist, best known for being the frontman of Van der Graaf Generator and his prolific solo career. Hammill began playing music at the age of seven, influenced by artists like Bob Dylan and The Beatles. In 1967 he formed Van der Graaf Generator, a progressive rock band that achieved great success in the 1970s with albums such as "Pawn Hearts" (1972) and "Godbluff" (1970). Hammill is known for his unique, powerful, and theatrical vocal style, often accompanied by complex and introspective lyrics. After the first dissolution of Van der Graaf Generator in 1978, Hammill continued to record music under his own name, releasing over 30 albums throughout his career. Some of his most representative tracks include "A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers" (1973), "Man-Erg" (1976) and "The Silent Corner and the Empty Stage" (1982). His music is characterized by a dark, melodic, and often experimental atmosphere, with influences ranging from progressive rock to jazz fusion. Hammill has collaborated with numerous artists, including David Sylvian and Robert Fripp.

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.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
