Van Der Graaf Generator: "Orthenthian Street (Part I)" Lyrics

(Hammill)

I feel a calling for the sea, I want to walk on the sand dunes...

I hope you'll forgive me if I say I can't take you:

at some times I've got to get away,

if just to get a break from the play

that we're all involved in.

All the love I'm living now could have ended yesterday

if the snow had fallen too hard up there on the Motorway...

If it happens, don't feel sorry, I won't feel alone:

it's just another travelling zone

that you can't come on.
