1
That token drag on your cigarette,
2
That well-known face in the fire,
3
It could be someone you can't forget,
4
Someone you've learnt to admire.
5
And it's strange
6
How the feeling goes;
7
All change -
8
Down the river Ophelia goes.
9
You're treading water, the price is steep,
10
You say you'll cope with it all;
11
You've made some promises you can't keep,
12
You throw yourself against the wall,
13
You throw yourself against the wall.
14
And it's strange...
15
You heard a noise in the firegrate,
16
You look to see who goes there -
17
It's just the stranger, he's come too late
18
And even he's unprepared
19
To find the cupboard so bare
20
And it's strange...
21
Down the river Ophelia goes.
