Lyrics for In A Station

Once I walked through the halls of a station And someone called your name In the street I heard children laughing They all sound the same Wonder, could you ever know me Know the reason why I live Is there nothing you can show me Life seems so little to give Once I climbed to the top of a mountain And ate the wild fruit there Fell asleep until the moonlight woke me Dreaming I could touch your hair Isn't everybody dreaming! Then the voice I hear is real Out of all the idle scheming Can't we have something to feel Once upon a time leaves me empty Tomorrow never came I could hear the sound of your laughter Still I don't know your name Must be some way to repay you After all the good you gave If a rumour should delay you Love seems so little to save Oh save me...
