Hope Road - Anne Clark (阿内·克拉克)[00:00:00]

So these are circumstances[00:01:02]

Leading to my sorry tale[00:01:03]

I was in a town I didn't know[00:01:05]

I'd arrieved there by rail[00:01:07]

It all began a week befere[00:01:09]

The joys of Saturday night[00:01:11]

An invite to a party[00:01:13]

Or watching the price is right[00:01:15]

Opting for a soiree[00:01:18]

For the first time in a year[00:01:19]

Mixed badly with the revellers[00:01:21]

Mixed Bacardi wine and beer[00:01:23]

The room moved back and forwards[00:01:25]

The dancers did the same[00:01:27]

Found refuge in a corner[00:01:30]

That's when he asked my name[00:01:31]

Well this is very nice I thought[00:01:46]

Smiling through the haze[00:01:48]

As we talked of auguste rodin[00:01:50]

Through to Harold Pinter's plays[00:01:51]

Said he played piano[00:01:54]

Said his name was Steve[00:01:56]

Why shouldn't I believe[00:02:00]

That he really lived so far away[00:02:02]

Had to make a move for home[00:02:04]

Scribbled down his address[00:02:06]

Said he didn't have a phone[00:02:08]

Would I like to come to dinner[00:02:10]

On Friday of next week[00:02:12]

To this I said I'd love to[00:02:14]

As he kissed me on the cheek[00:02:16]

That night I felt so happy[00:02:30]

Excited through and through[00:02:32]

See the company of strangers[00:02:34]

Doesn't always leave you blue[00:02:36]

Stumbled home contented[00:02:38]

Like a cat that got the cream[00:02:40]

Wake up a little weary[00:02:42]

But I knew it was no dream[00:02:44]

The next few days were auyiouns[00:02:46]

What could I find towaer[00:02:48]

What happens if I arrive[00:02:50]

And there is no hope road there[00:02:52]

My friend said don't ba silly[00:02:54]

No one does things like that[00:02:56]

Now will you get a move on[00:02:58]

And take off that stupid hat[00:03:00]

Made sure I set out early[00:03:14]

Made sure I caught the train[00:03:16]

Got out at the right station[00:03:18]

Then of course came down the rain[00:03:20]

Followed the directions[00:03:22]

Excactly as he said[00:03:24]

Asked people if they new hope road[00:03:26]

But they just walked on ahead[00:03:28]

I turned left at the junction[00:03:30]

Took the fork off to the right[00:03:32]

Straight over at the crossroads[00:03:34]

Then down to the traffic lights[00:03:36]

Must have walked those streets for hours[00:03:38]

In the dark and in the cold[00:03:40]

Before I really could accept[00:03:42]

There was no place called hope road[00:03:45]

So here I am alone again[00:03:59]

Indoors by myself[00:04:01]

The TV plants books and I[00:04:03]

All nearly on the shelf[00:04:05]

Next time I'll be more cautions[00:04:07]

Next time I won't be fooled[00:04:09]

It's another of those basic things[00:04:11]

You're never taught at school[00:04:13]

Let this be a warning[00:04:15]

As you wander through the world[00:04:17]

It makes no difference who you are[00:04:19]

Be you boy or be you girl[00:04:21]

Be very very careful[00:04:23]

When people seems so nice[00:04:25]

It's not how that it's expensive[00:04:27]

Later on you pay the price[00:04:29]

There's no hope road[00:04:33]
