Van Der Graaf Generator - Alfa Berlina Lyrics

In the fullness of time, when it's all waxed and waned
And the cycle's complete maybe it'll make sense at last
All the strangeness explained, all the stories discrete
Maybe then it'll all be clear

I've got a iifetime's library of unreliable mementoes
And I could show you one or two
If it's of interest, it'd be an education
For me to simply talk you through
How I wore my innocence as some kind of novelty
As if I didn't know
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
Lay the fire down below

All sense of caution was abandoned in the moment
Our eagerness to claim the day
The dice we rolled would take us anywhere
And there were no excuses left to stay
This was the time, this was the chance to go
And do it in some style
Just turn your face up to the summer sun
And drive a thousand miles
In an alfa berlina

I saw a wolf high on the mountain pass
The stars were tumbling end to end
I knew I'd never feel as free as this again
The sea below us like a looking-glass
We drifted through the hair-pin bends
In the alfa berlina

So very long ago, so far away
It's all time out of mind
But when I think about the way it was
We were recklessly alive
In the alfa berlina

In the fullness of time I can look back and say
I first fell on my feet
In the alfa
