The Ides of May
My feet passed under a greying sky I felt out of place in a town not mine When sudden yellow lights flickered into life Testing the strength of my stretched out shadow There in the fading light as I was passing by I caught the eye of a dark haired woman We talked a little while, she gave a nervous smile She asked if I would come inside
Time and trinkets adorned her walls There was a tiny boy on a plastic horse And a black and white photograph in pride of place Of a pretty lady and a tall dark man She was dressed in velvet and black silk And I must admit that I felt uneasy And as I looked towards the door she laughed and said Boy don't you even think about leaving
She Said
Beware the ides of May, they will haunt you. Always. Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
I asked her what she meant, and she said There are things I cannot explain In any written language, yet still You should listen to my claim Beware the ides of May And if you sleep with that thought, sleep with it under your pillow You may yet escape your fate If you listen when I say
Beware the ides of May, they will haunt you. Always.
I didn't know what to believe I took the thought out to the street She said 'The next time that we meet You can give it back to me'
Beware the ides of May
