POEM TEXT

T. S. Eliot reads "Burnt Norton" (1935)

One of the old songs - meant to be very simple, kept adding parts - when will I learn!?

Cold

In Your Eyes

Anywhere I go
In a way I’m home
On the avenue of evening

Some way out
Sun wears out
On the avenue of evening

Mr Lear’s walking back from work
Into the night
Did the film always start too soon?
Does it turn out alright?
World without end

Sun wears out
On the avenue of evening
On the avenue of evening

From the dusty ghosts of Rome 
To the street below
To Lorena with her hungry eyes
Saying…

Sorrow and the avenue
Were all I ever knew
All I ever knew
All I ever knew

Cold
