Robyn Hitchcock - Cathedral

Lyrics:

Do you wonder like I do
What goes on inside of you
In the cathedral of the mind
All the worshippers are blind

Like a toilet from outside
A cathedral from inside
There behind your open face
Lies an awful lot of space
And if I ever look into your open eyes again
I'll remind myself to stare until I'm looking through your eyes

When I'm hurt you feel the pain
You've been in my head again
You're projecting onto me
What you'd like yourself to see

Now the clock is beating fast
Every moment wanders past
And fades away
Then comes back another day
Do I go or do I stay
Inside your mind

I Often Dream of Trains got heavy rotation (yep...vinyl/turntable) when I was a teen. Thanks for the post - brings back some wonderful memories!

Thank you so much for posting this. Always such a beautiful, haunting song. As a teenager in the mid-80's, I did a charcoal sketch inspired by the song, illustrating the space behind the open face. I'm no artist, and have done little since, but I will always be proud of that one.
