Hammill, Peter - Labour Of Love

You don't remember all the things I've done; You never catch the careful words I choose; Your present will not admit my patient efforts - It's a labour of love I offer to you. Unselfishness - does that hold the space...

Hammill, Peter - Losing Faith In Words

I just can't see why you can't see what I mean, but I can't make things any plainer, the words get in the way - is that quite what I mean? If not now, then certainly sooner or later we've got a problem with...

Hammill, Peter - Lost And Found

(Even the wolf can learn, even the sheep can turn, even the frog bcome at last the prince.) No more imagined insults and no more bloated pride - I'll see you at the wedding, I'll see you on the other side and I'll hold...

Hammill, Peter - Magog (In Bromine Chambers)

In Bromine Chambers there can be no mercy, no bitter flagellation for your sins; no forgiveness and no sackcloth can cease the dance of ashes on the wind. Too late now for a wish to change all wishing; too late to...

Hammill, Peter - Modern

Jericho's strange, throbbing with life at its heart : people are drawn together, simultaneously torn apart... Foundations are shattered in the city inside the barricaded doors ----- hiding behind their walls, lonely as...

Hammill, Peter - Mr. X (Gets Tense)

The current affair gets to be my business I heard the news on the radio The sun on earth... what is this? Is that the way that the crazy goes? Attention tuned to the satellites, looking down for an overview. In the...

Hammill, Peter - My Experience

It was nothing, it came from nowhere at all, it was a casual remark, not a curtain-call. Late for breakfast - black coffee, brandy-laced... that look on your face. I'll remember last night; I'll look out for the...

68

Hammill, Peter - My Favourite

In my time I've told a lie of two. I've been a deceiver, but believe me what I now say is true. There's no other way I can express what I'm thinking of: You're my favourite, you're the one that I love. It's a one-horse...

Hammill, Peter - Nadir's Big Chance

I've been hanging around, waiting for my chance to tell you what I think about the music that's gone down to which you madly danced--frankly, you know that it stinks. I'm gonna scream, gonna shout, gonna play my guitar...

Hammill, Peter - No Moon In The Water

So if it's just so then where is it now when I find the moment uncertain? Broken water pail - no moon in the water, try to hold it now. So I want to hold on reflections all gone, no ego - so. Broken water pail - no...

Hammill, Peter - No More

In my youth, I played at trains: now all steam is gone. In my dreams, brief shelter from the rain, I try to catch the fireglow... with Dinky Toys, I thought that I was Stirling; with cricket bat, I say myself as Peter...

Hammill, Peter - No More (The Submariner)

In my youth, I played at trains: now all steam is gone. In my dreams, brief shelter from the rain, I try to catch the fireglow... with Dinky Toys, I thought that I was Stirling; with cricket bat, I say myself as Peter...

Hammill, Peter - Nobody's Business

Look out through your dark hair, tell me the colour of your eyes when they're cool; look out through the dark ages and tell me what's covert, transfixing you. Oh, you're nobody's business, oh, you're nobody's...

74

Hammill, Peter - Not For Keith

In Germany, his days finally caught him; I won't insult his memory with long-distance grief. Tears and wakes weren't his style: not him, not for Keith. He'd have laughed in my face if he saw it get mournful, he'd...

75

Hammill, Peter - Not The Man

There are so many questions, there are so many doubts - this is auto-suggestion your spirit is giving out. If I offered my reasons would you give me a break? Now it's all open season, no sense of quit and take. You...

76

Hammill, Peter - Now More Than Ever

Between coma and consciousness no hard and fast line, no chances to vote on the motioning eye... A mystical vision or a fall from grace, the chase in slow motion through alien space? I don't know what to make of the...

Hammill, Peter - Oasis

Beside the pool of clear water, fed by a secret spring, your lips are sealed, but in your body language angels sing. I swear on the Bible, swear on the sacred and profane I think I'm drowning in the vortex your eyes...

78

Hammill, Peter - On The Surface

On the surface phosphones gleaming; deep down we carry on dreaming. On the surface compass and charts checked; deep down the current run in a shining vortex, in a swirling vortex. On the surface oil troubled water...

Hammill, Peter - Open Your Eyes (The Locarno Song)

I was sitting in the dance-hall, but my mind was far away so when the usherette walked over I didn't know quite what to say: I tried to look cool but I knew that I blew it somehow. Her fishnet tights took me quite by...

Hammill, Peter - Ophelia

That token drag on your cigarette, that well-known face in the fire, it could be someone you can't forget, someone you've learnt to admire. And it's strange how the feeling goes; all change - down the river Ophelia...
