Nevers
Quelle: Spotify
There's a town I know called Nevers.
No nevers,
Never wasn't was what it weren't
When it wasn't once. Knew Nevers,
Knew Nevers.
Nothing never I'll ever learnt.
There's a village I visit, that's Vaguely.
Sorta vaguely...
Vaguely!: yes I seem to recall.
Though it's unclear, clearly: Vaguely.
Very vaguely
Can't say it's been there once and for all.
I put back on my overshoes
And got in my Renault
The trips reset so I'm unsure
How far it is to go
But then it hits me (slap):
I've left it off my map.
There's a city I saw signed Something.
Must be something,
Something never quite so defined.
So much so how somewhere something
(though some sing)
So to speak's the uncertain kind.
In an index looked up Where-it-Was.
Exactly where it was,
Just in fact to make sure I can't
Set a course straight through to Where-It-Ain't.
And Where-It-Ain't:
Ain't gotten to except at a slant.
I put on my new black boots
And pack up my citroen.
And out of town it huffs and puffs
I set off there alone.
And then it hits me (slap):
I've left it off my map
There's a place I passed called Once-Upon-a-Time,
Tiny Once-Upon-a-Time.
Never wasn't weren't what it was.
Set the clock back twice or once upon a time,
In Once-Upon-a-Time,
Never knew when it wasn't there because.
