Lyrics
I GUESS / ALL AT ONCE
Trev Teasdel Coventry May 1971
I guess moonlight never meant much to me before
A kiss was a kiss and nothing more.
I guess the silver fountains never danced for
me before.
A girl was a girl and nothing more.
I guess a castle in the sky was just a fantasy before
and love was four letters and nothing more.
And all at once I'm the lake in which you swim.
And all at once I'm the sky in which you fly.
And suddenly you tread my woven patterns
and darkness is a pantomime of dancing stars.
I guess I never dug backstreet scenery before
My life was lived and nothing more.
I guess i never got together the together thing before
I was a passing train that passed and nothing more.
I guess I always had to walk before, now I fly,
don't walk no more.
And all at once I'm a tune that people hum
And all at once I'm an unexpected smile on the gloomiest face.
And suddenly the moon is no longer a spy
travelling incognito.
I guess I never found nobody who became somebody to me before.
A date was a date and nothing more.
I guess my eyes were never opened as wide as this before
I looked but never saw through a slit and nothing more.
I guess i always thought that were i was was where it's at before.
But boy you really shook my soul when you showed me there's so much more.
And all at once I'm the sun who threw a party for the poor
and all at once I'm the sea who stood up and put a towel around her breasts.
throwing rubber dinghies to those drowning in their tears.
And suddenly I'm the mountain who ran away to space
And suddenly gravity signs his official recognition.
