People You Were Going To Lyrics - Hammill Peter

Your father has just left your mother, 

gone off to live with his latest lover: 

she sits there, just staring. 

So you get back to your own flat 

because the atmosphere in there 

is so bad you can't bear it. 

And the people you were going to America with 

just left on the dawn plane 

without you, 

without you. 

The people in the downstairs flat 

are no longer there now because they left 

the gas tap on, they're all dead. 

So you've no-one left to talk to, 

you just lie there in melancholy, 

half-naked on your unmade bed. 

And the people you were going to Africa with 

just left on the Southern Star 

without you, 

without you. 

Yes, the haze that's been forming round your window-panes 

is now protracted and poisoned 

and you cannot feel a portion of the world outside. 

Can you imagine the way you'd feel 

if all these things had happened to you 

and the doctor says you're dying? 

That is the way that I feel now 

on finding that your love belongs 

to someone else and not I. 

My chance of heaven has just blown away 

upon a passing cloud and there is nothing that I can do 

without you. 

The people you were going to 

have left, gone far away 

and you're lonely.
