Somewhere In England 1915 - Al Stewart[00:00:01]

On the platform of an old railway station I enter a dream[00:00:09]

And a couple are saying goodbye[00:00:18]

Through the noise and the steam[00:00:22]

But it's just Brief Encounter my mind is trying to rerun[00:00:27]

And I wait for the poignant[00:00:37]

Finale but the dream has moved on[00:00:39]

And the train has turned into a ship that is sailing away[00:00:46]

And the platform is a beach full of shells under silvery grey[00:00:55]

And the girl on the beach is an[00:01:04]

English Prime Minister's daughter[00:01:07]

And she watches the ship[00:01:13]

Disappear at the edge of the water[00:01:16]

And it feels like the pain in her heart will be never-ending[00:01:23]

And everyone feels this way in the beginning[00:01:32]

And she watches the ship disappear for the length of a sigh[00:01:46]

And the maker of rhymes on the deck who is going to die[00:01:55]

In the corner of some foreign field[00:02:04]

That will make him so famous[00:02:07]

As a light temporarily shines to illumine his pages[00:02:13]

Then the scene has changed once again[00:02:23]

Now it's moonlight on wire[00:02:26]

And the night is disturbed by a sudden volcano of fire[00:02:32]

And a skull in a trench gazes up open-mouthed at the moon[00:02:41]

And the poets are now Wilfred own and Siegfried Sassoon[00:02:50]

And nobody talks anymore about losing and winning[00:03:00]

And everyone feels that way in the beginning[00:03:09]

And I'm up in the air looking down at a girl on a bed[00:03:18]

She's lying asleep on her side with a book at her head[00:03:27]

And it's someone who left long ago[00:03:37]

Was it something I said[00:03:40]

And I hope that she's reading[00:03:46]

King Lear but it's Twelfth Night instead[00:03:48]

Now the girl and the beach and[00:03:55]

The train and the ship are all gone[00:03:57]

And the calendar up on the wall says it's ninety years on[00:04:04]

I go out into the yard where the newspaper waits[00:04:13]

There's a man on the cover we all know defying the fates[00:04:23]

And he seems very sure ashe offers up his opinion[00:04:32]

Well everyone feels like this in the beginning[00:04:41]

When you feel that the pain in your heart will be unending[00:04:50]

Everyone feels this way in the beginning[00:05:00]

If you feel that the pain in your heart will be never-ending[00:06:23]

Well everyone feels that way in the beginning[00:06:32]
