One of These Days (Waters, Wright, Mason, Gilmour)

One of these days, I'm going to cut you into little pieces

 


A Pillow of Winds (Waters, Gilmour)

A cloud of eiderdown draws around me
Softening a sound
Sleepy time when I lie with my love by my side
And she's breathing low and the candle dies

When night comes down you lock the door
The book falls to the floor
As darkness falls and the waves roll by
The seasons change the wind is warm

Now wakes the owl, now sleeps the swan
Behold the dream, the dream is gone
Green fields, a cold rain
Is falling in a golden door

And deep beneath the ground the early morning sounds
And I go down
Sleeping time when I lie with my love by my side
And she's breathing low

And I rise like a bird
In the haze when the first rays touch the sky
And the night winds die

 


Fearless (Waters, Gilmour)

You say the hill's too steep to climb, climbing
You say you'd like to see me try, climbing
You pick the place and I'll choose the time
And I'll climb the hill in my own way
Just wait a while for the right day
And as I rise above the tree-line and the clouds
I look down hearing the sound of the things you've said today

Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd, smiling
Merciless the magistrate turns round, frowning
And who's the fool who wears the crown ?
No doubt in your own way
And every day is the right day
And as you rise above the fear-lines in his brow
You look down hear the sound of the faces in the crowd

 


San Tropez (Waters)

As I reach for a peach
Slide a line down behind a sofa in San Tropez
Breaking a stick with a brick on the sand
Riding a wave in the wake of an old sedan
Sleeping alone in the drone of the darkness
Scratched by the sand that fell from my love
Deep in my dreams and I still hear her calling
If you're alone, I'll come home

Backward and homebound, the pigeon, the dove
Gone with the wind and the rain, on an airplane
Born in a home with no silver spoon
I'm drinking champagne like a good tycoon

Sooner than wait for a break in the weather
I'll gather my far flung thoughts together
Speeding away on the wind to a new day
And if you're alone I'll come home

And I'll pause for a while by a country style
And listen to the things they say
Digging for gold in a hole in my hand
Open a book, take a look at the way things stand

And you're leading me down to the place by the sea
I hear your soft voice calling to me
Making a date for later by phone
And if you're alone I'll come home

 


Seamus (Mason, Gilmour, Waters, Wright)

I was in the kitchen
Seamus, that's the dog, was outside
Well I was in the kitchen,
Seamus, my old hound, was outside
Well you know the sun sinking slowly
And my old hound-dog sat right down and cried

 


Echoes (Mason,Gilmour,Waters,Wright)

Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves
In labyrinths of coral caves
The echo of a distant time
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine

And no-one showed us to the land
And no-one knows the where's or why's.
Something stirs and something tries
And starts to climb toward the light

Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can

And no-one called us move on
And no-one forces down our eyes
And no-one speaks and no-one tries
And no-one flies around the sun....

Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes
Inviting and inciting me to rise
And through the window in the wall
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning

And no-one sings me lullabies
And no-one makes me close my eyes
So I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky....
