The Guitar Lesson - Steven Wilson[00:00:00]

The pupil is twelve[00:00:09]

Attractive withdrawn[00:00:11]

In a midnight blue[00:00:13]

School uniform[00:00:16]

Lips just a little too full for her face[00:00:18]

Distant eyes full of space[00:00:23]

In her posture no trace of coquette[00:00:32]

No defiance[00:00:36]

She fingers the frets looking forlorn[00:00:42]

Crossing her legs where her tights have been torn[00:00:46]

Starts as her mother comes into the room[00:00:51]

And the afternoon grows still[00:00:55]

And her mother feels a chill[00:01:05]

Shivers and buttons her coat[00:01:07]

I gently correct the curve of her back[00:01:14]

And open her book in the now empty flat[00:01:19]

At the classical piece I've had her prepare[00:01:23]

And her arms are bare as she plays[00:01:28]

And I draw back behind her ear[00:01:38]

A few strands of hair gone astray[00:01:41]

She shows me her bracelet the lesson is done[00:02:05]

I turn it around between finger and thumb[00:02:10]

We sit face to face and it seems to me that[00:02:15]

Her face is the face of a cat[00:02:19]

And touching the place where her breasts will be[00:02:29]

I press my hand flat[00:02:34]

Now from afar it seems to resemble[00:02:37]

A strange composition in oil[00:02:41]

Of a man a guitar and an innocent little girl[00:02:46]

As if listening to the distant sound of a burglar alarm[00:03:01]

What happened next it's hard to recall[00:03:31]

The guitar lesson left no traces at all[00:03:34]
