My Experience Songtext
von Peter Hammill

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 signs
You were caught in the light

Time after time after time after time

It′s been my experience
That when the row gets serious
A certain silence will form


But I just can't stop it
Why don't you tell me what′s wrong?
My heart goes like a rocket
The feeling′s so strong
I just can't stop it
Why don′t you tell me what's wrong?
Don′t think about it too long
Don't think about it too long

I could argue this another way
But on another day I might have to shout
You keep your mouth shut
But it′s too late for that now
The word got out
In translation it's lost
In definition it's mine
Is it paradise lost or paradise?
Time after time after time after time

It′s been my experience
That when the row gets serious
A certain silence will form

But I just can′t stop it
Why don't you tell me what′s wrong?
My heart goes like a rocket
The feeling's so strong
I just can′t stop it
Why don't you tell me what′s wrong?


Don't think about it too long
Don't think about it too long
Don′t think about it too long
Don′t think about it too long
Don't think about it too long
Don′t think about it too long
