Procol Harum - Too Much Between Us lyrics

(brooker / trower / reid) There's you, you're sleeping over there Whilst me i'm sitting here With so much sea between us I can't make it much more clear There'll be no time for crying We won't make it more than six I could change my plea to guilty But i don't think it would stick Still those other ratings far too easy to despise You've said so much in silence now i truly am disguised Let him who fears his heart alone Stand up and make a speech For him perhaps an emperor's throne If he could only speak Far too few and far to follow For shame i'll heed the cry Be with me when i need a drink Be with me when i die Still those other ratings far too easy to despise You've said so much in silence now indeed i am disguised
