paroles de chanson Winter Words, Op. 52: Midnight on the Great Western - "The Journeying Boy" - Benjamin Britten , Sir Peter Pears
In
the
third-class
seat
sat
the
journeying
boy
And
the
roof-lamp's
oily
flame
Played
down
on
his
listless
form
and
face
Bereft
past
knowing
Nor
what
he
was
going
Or
whence
he
came
In
the
band
of
his
hat
the
journeying
boy
Had
a
ticket
stuck
And
a
string
round
his
neck
for
the
key
of
his
box
That
twinkled
gleams
Of
the
lamp's
sad
beams
Like
a
living
thing
What
past
can
be
yours,
O
journeying
boy
Towards
a
world
unknown
Who
calmly,
as
if
incurious
quite
Of
all
at
stake
Can
undertake
this
plunger
alone?
Knows
your
soul
a
sphere,
O
journeying
boy
A
rude
realm
far
above
Whence
with
spacious
vision
you
mark
and
meet
This
region
of
sin
That
you
find
you're
in
But
are
not
of?
