Didn't want to be the one
The one who's left behind
While the other one goes out to life
And comes back home to find
Me sitting pretty happily
Surrounded by a house
With cups in all their saucers
And not a bit of dust
Days going by in clouds of flour and white washing
Life getting lost in a world without end
I wanted to be the one
With road dust on my boots
And a single silver ear-ring
And a suitcase full of notes
And a band of wayward children
With their fathers left behind
All in their castles in their air
And houses in their land
Lives getting lost in mending gaps in their fencing
All I ever wanted was a road without end
Vashti Bunyan è una cantautrice britannica nata nel 1945. Dopo un periodo di successo negli anni '60 con il suo album d'esordio "Just Another Diamond Day", ha abbandonato la musica per dedicarsi alla vita familiare. Tornata sul palcoscenico musicale negli anni '90, Bunyan ha riscoperto una nuova popolarità grazie al suo sound folk-rock introspettivo e poetico. Il suo album del 1970 "Just Another Diamond Day" è considerato un classico cult del folk inglese, apprezzato per la sua atmosfera malinconica e le melodie evocative. Tra i brani più noti di Bunyan figurano "Diamond Day", "The Rose of England" e "I'm So Glad I Found You".
