lyrics

Everyone thinks it's the liver
Witness, see the legs are first to go
Hence we found you buckled
In the middle of that road
You claimed the cause was seizure
Futile was the lie
The grime and smell conceding
That it was the way of life

You said you're 46
I hope that isn't true
My uncle made just 50
Living much the way you do
Though they had special homes in Cricklewood
In the end it didn't do much good
My mother still prays for him
Dead nine years this June

And I wonder...

Where did your dreams go?
Where did your dreams go?
Where did your dreams go?
Did you carry them with you
in the middle of that road?

As we waited on the ambulance
You confessed the truth
"Alcohol's my problem dear,
I won't lie to you"
And mentioning a lady
Who passed just five weeks ago
The tears streamed down your cheeks
You wept, "It hurts more than you can know"

And she was only 34
Your partner, by your side
I guess the risk of living for Oblivion
Is that one day
Oblivion may oblige

And I wonder...

Where did her dreams go?
Where did her dreams go?
Where did her dreams go?
Did she carry them with her
to the end of that road?

Where are you in the world?
Who sees you here?
As each and everyone passes you by
In apathy or fear
Fear of contamination,
By your world, of their's
How delicate must be
Our existence on the Earth

Where are you in the world?
What child dreamt of this?
Is the end to be a tragedy
Or escape into Bliss?

Is the end to be bereaved
Or considered a silent removal of the waste?

And I wonder...

Where did your dreams go?
Where did your dreams go?
Where did your dreams go?
Do you carry them with you to the end of that road?
