It's either ether or the other
My mind is back to front
And sometimes absent
And slip the cup
I've taken a sip from the cup
That slips into ether

It's either ether or the other

I press my window to the glass
The glass turns to gas
I breathe out ether, a glass of ether
Ether is a thief
It's stolen my belief

Slip through the ether
We both slip through the ether
Slipstreams of memory slipping away
It's ether

Betty May and Raoul Loveday
Betty May and Raoul Loveday
Betty May and Raoul Loveday
Slip through the ether
Sip the ether
Sip the ether
Slipstreams of memories slipping away
Slipstreams of memories slipping away
Memories of Fitzrovia slipping away
Into ether
Into ether

I've changed my mind
It's what it's there for
I've changed my mind
It's what it's there for
For therefore

Full of ether
Full of ether
Full of ether
Full of ether
Full of ether

I'm going upstairs now
To take my mind off

I'm going upstairs now
To turn my mind off
To turn my mind off
To turn my mind off
To turn my mind off
To turn my mind off
To turn my mind off
To turn my mind off
