Not For Keith - Peter Hammill[00:00:00]
In Germany[00:00:01]
His days finally caught him[00:00:03]
I won't insult his memory with long distance grief[00:00:08]
Tears and wakes weren't his style[00:00:14]
Not him[00:00:17]
Not for keith[00:00:20]
He'd have laughed in my face if he saw it[00:00:26]
Get mournful[00:00:30]
He'd pull me up short and say life carries on[00:00:32]
In that gentle way of being cruelly scornful[00:00:39]
Now he's gone[00:00:44]
I want to see it all and eat it[00:00:51]
Was as close to ethos as he came[00:00:54]
Though he knew he couldn't beat it[00:00:59]
Never gave of himself anything less than best[00:01:03]
In the game[00:01:07]
Oh one of the game[00:01:11]
I never did say I never quite found time[00:01:18]
He taught me a lot[00:01:23]
And I carry it still[00:01:25]
Never thanked at all for his friendship[00:01:29]
And now I never will[00:01:32]
Diaries we write[00:01:40]
Are those we crave for[00:01:43]
We never put the p s at the foot of[00:01:47]
The final page[00:01:49]
He deserved more time[00:01:53]
But he never was made for[00:01:56]
Middle age[00:02:00]
Middle age[00:02:06]
Not for middle age[00:02:10]
Not for Keith[00:02:17]
