Count your stars
At my table
Michael don't speak
Of leaner days

Stow ’em away

Tell her I came on the tail of a storm
I lay on her roof and I waited 'til dawn

Tyger she sleeps
On the floor by the flames
With her hair soft and golden
Her green eyes deranged

Something she said
Got stuck in your head
Like glue

So you took your dream
And made it your scheme
Didn't you?

You’ll never know
You'll never show
Will you?

You'll never know
You'll never show
Will you?

Warm your hands
At my fire
Michael don't speak
Of leaner days

Stow 'em away

Tell her I came on the tail of a storm
I lay on her roof and I waited 'til dawn

Tyger she sleeps
On the floor by the flames
With her hair soft and golden
Her green eyes deranged

Something she said
Got stuck in your head
Like glue

So you took your dream
And made it your scheme
Didn't you?

You’ll never know
You’ll never show
Will you?

You'll never know
You’ll never show
Will you?

You will be here and elsewhere
Forever stowing your love away

For nothing will ever compare
To your world of fake fire and cellophane

You'll be tracing the arc in the square
And I'll chase the shadow of Joan again
