Time Travellers - 1775
Tread gently beneath the fragile fanlight
With its curving carved ribs
framing rippling glass

ONCE WE HAD IT ALL
ONCE WE HAD IT ALL
Once we had it all, I had a nice raven-haired girl, took her three kids
on all happy families. Guess I did love you, were we really soulmates?

We split, I went Norway, gothic metal heartland, black m...
