A slight plaigirism here, thought I'd written a really beautiful piece when I was reminded by a friend it sounded very reminiscent of Jethro Tull's 'Elegy'.

Ah well, it was never meant...I guess some things just stick in the mind...

She, was a girl that I once knew

Though that wasn't long enough

Couldn't understand her views

Couldn't see behind her

Soft and gentle eyes that sparkled

taking shape beneath her

Hair that curled upon her shoulders

And I loved her

She, had a hang up about life

Couldn't comprehend her thoughts

Took it all too seriously

Though that no-one cared to

Speak to her and reason out

Some kind of magic potion

That would help her see it through

And I loved her

Now the flames run in the hearth

And the moon is on the sill

Light the lamp and go to bed

Still she haunts me in my

Dreams that take their shape upon the

Starlit sky against the mountains

Now it seems a century has passed

And I love her still
