if i could (from skeletons of songs bootleg) - peter hammill lyrics

[verse 1]
oh, you must be crazy to stay here
and i’ll be crazy when you go;
though there’s so much i want to tell you
all the words come out too slow
i’ve been locked in my problems
you seemed prepared to wait…
now that i know i’m going to lose you
all the words come out too late

[chorus]
there’s no promise i can give you
that you wouldn’t know was fake;
though i just want to be with you
there’s no show that i can make

[post*chorus 1]
and in the morning, when i wake and find you dressing
i can see that it’s on your mind to go for good;
and i know that all this time i’ve kept you guessing
but i’d tell you if i could
that’s just no good, that’s just no…
[verse 2]
but if i now said that i loved you
oh, how would that seem in your eyes?
oh, may my voice fall into silеnce
if my words turn out to be lies
you know that i nеver meant to hurt you
even though i’m… that’s what i do –
even though you might not believe this
all my words were meant for you

[chorus]
there’s no promise i can give you
that you wouldn’t know was fake;
though i just want to be with you
there’s no show that i can make

[post*chorus 2]
and in the evening, when we sit and watch the tv
oh, i know that all this silence just won’t do me any good
and i want to beg you, beg you, beg you to believe me…
that i’d tell you if i could
i’d tell you if i could
i’d tell you if i could
