There was a boy who came into this world at the hands of a holy woman in a holy place      
He wore a red coat and walked a bulldog  saw them reflected in the mirror of the lakes
Lived in the shadow of the mountains with the smells of disinfectant
Dusty old leather and the polished wood of his bed
No more than a baby feeding swans on the river  holding the hands of his mother
And the wax paper bag of yesterday's bread       
And his father on the other side of the world on the ship's railings and some far away tide
With the silent dry tear of home thoughts from abroad in his far away eyes
                   (NC)        
In his far away eyes
  The smell of the wax on the wooden floor   mixture of polish and soap
  No children to fear or to play with   rows of empty hooks for the coats
An upright piano and the boys in the choir    still remind him of just before he was born
  Remind him of just before he was breathing   strange misty visions of God
  Turn the cities into families   into villages of souls
  Hovering in the air while they're sleeping   with their houses invisible
                                              (NC)
  Send to me the ghosts of Christmas   whispering     "You're the only one"

  And ever since I was a boy I never felt that I belonged
                             1                   1
Like everything they did to me was an experiment   to see
                             1                                 1
How I would cope with the illusion in which direction would I jump
                       1                         1
Would I do it all the same as the actors in the game
Or would I spit it back at them and not get caught up in their rules
And live according to my own and not be used not be used
To find the fundamental truths it was gonna take some time
Thirty-five summers down the line the wisdom of each passing year
Seems to serve only to confuse seems to serve only to confuse

   Daddycame out of the navy and took us away to his dirty grey home town
   And he worked down a coal mine for National Service so that he could be around
   There was a magical purple    in the chrome of the exhaust of his Triumph motor bike      
And a warmth of oil and metal    and the thrill of the hard corner holding tight  
From the horizon came home from the Navy to the mine
   From the horizon to buried alive
Took his dream underground
Buried his treasure in his faraway eyes
   And one day as the boy lay sleeping in the sunshine of a half-remembered afternoon    
   A cloud of bees with no particular aim and no brain found the boy
Decided that his time had come    
   Came down out of the sky stung him in the face   again and again
Blue pain screaming like baptism  intravenous Jesus
Like being chosen   from something with no brain  blue pain
   It's happening again  it's happening again                                                  
                                                                                       
   Oh Mummy Daddy will you sit a while with me?
   Oh Mummy Daddy will you jog my memory?
Tell me    tall tales of Montego Bay Table Mountain flying fish
   Banana spiders pots of paint and the sun on the Equator
Setting like an ember thrown to deep water
From crimson to black
But coming back tomorrow
      On the horizon                                               
                                                           
   The blue pain    fades to a point where it doesn't fade
It stayed       blue
And stirred his red coat heart to this    strange engine
This love  this love  this love
This inconvenient blind blood-diamond this puzzle
This love this blind blood-diamond this puzzle I don't understand
That knows no faith and tries and fails and tries again
Stares at the sea the night's dark deep for one last time
And bleeds and bleeds and dies for you
And lies and is to blame and is ashamed
And is not the same and is true
Is true is true is true is true is true is true is true is true
