Sephora

Sephora took me through her house in Brixton
She had carpets hung and paintings on the wall
In the corners I could see reflections
But of what, I can't recall

We went out for a walk down by the seaside
There were men in suits and women in the sand
"Come here, darling, don't you know you can't hide?"
She said to me and held my hand

It seems like a dream that's worth the telling
Not long ago, not far away

The setting sun upon the sea
She was standing next to me
Is it true? How can it be
Only yesterday?

Above us in the purple sky
I watched the gulls go flying by
She laughed and looked into my eyes
What did I hear her say?

Never take more than you need
Of every warning please take heed
Judge not word, judge not deed
And from this never stray
