Lyrics:
- Another Day -
The kettle's on
The sun has gone
Another day
She offers me
Tibetan tea
On a flower tray
She's at the door
She wants to score
She dearly needs to say
I loved you a long time ago
Where the wind's own forget-me-nots blow
But I just couldn't let myself go
Not knowing what on earth there was to know
But I wish that I had
'Cos I'm feeling so sad
That I never had one of your children
And across the room
Inside a tomb
A chance is waxed and wanes
The night is young
Why are we so hung up
In each others chains?
I must take her
And I must make her
While the dove domains
And feel the juice run as she flies
Run my wings under her sighs
As the flames of eternity rise
To lick us with the first-born lash of dawn
Oh really my dear
I can't see what we fear
Sat here with ourselves in-between us
And at the door
We can't say more
Than just another day
And without a sound
I turn around
And I walk away

One of the most painfully beautiful songs ever written. An experience you carry for life.
I was about to say the same thing, agreed
Love this song love the album love all Harpers songs. Guy has a magic touch. I first got into Roy Harper at age 20 in 1969 when I heard this album. Im 74 now and still well into this. Lyrics are amazing in all his songs. 👍👍👍
I'm here because of the Cocteau Twins. Yes drawn to the source and I must say it is far better than I ever expected. Actually, it's fantastic.
you mean This Mortal coil , eh ? :)
@@lucaschiavoni Thank you. I didn't realize it was the other way around. I never got into TMC. Much to learn (still)
I once watched Roy spend nearly 10 minutes pretending to tune his guitar while obviously trying to get to grips with the effects of the spliff he'd just smoked, he kept trying to reassure us in the audience that he was fine and would be good to continue if we allowed him a little patience before he walked off claiming to need a wee and never came back. What a legend.
Have loved the Man forever
The British Dylan, right up there!!
An old Hippie revolutionary Poet!!...
I had the great pleasure of hosting Roy as a houseguest one night after a gig when his hotel booking had gone awry.
"OMG! Roy Harper is sleeping on my sofa!"
It's an unforgettable night for sure. 😁
In my opinion Elizabeth Fraser of Cocteau Twins performed the best cover of this song on the This Mortal Coil album from 1984. It is so raw and deeply melancholic.
All congratulations to Roy Harper, Kate Bush, Ivo Watts-Russell, This Mortal Coil, Elizabeth Fraser and his ethereal voice.

Beautiful song by a sadky forgotten musician.
Not forgotten ! Never he lives on in us !
So many great songs by Roy Harper, and this may be the best of all.
An awesome song that is just so moving. Roy touches my soul in the way that Leonard Cohen and John Martyn do. Magical and timeless. I saw Roy many years ago at Poynton folk club, an experince never to be forgotten.
My absolute most sublime favourite of Roy's and acoustic mist libed. It brings me more back to that young time in my 20's than most things, apart from Gong. ❤❤❤❤❤
fantastic music. the modal melody, vocals and first use of strings audibly inspired jethro tull, plus an 80s cover by this mortal coil.
This guy brings me to tears of lost loves and memories
So good
I first heard this by Mortal Coil & when Elizabeth Frazer sand about feeling so sad because she never had one of my children i used to get teary eyed! Love this song ! Its beautiful! I love every different version of it 💖
Love this song...
So lucky to see him in Whelens pub in Dublin.A small miracle!
Saw him at The Abbey Pub in Chicago years ago with like 20 other people. When you could actually go to Chicago without fear of being murdered. What the fuck have we become?
So epically, deeply, intimately sorrowful. It aches, it hurts...
"I can't see what we fear
Sat here with ourselves in-between us"
Wow.. beautiful moving song amazing lyrics just a melcholy masterpiece. Bliss 👌
Powerful song, a portraiture of two people who have slipped into an unhappy, though not entirely uncommon marital quandary...beautifully italicized by Harper's celestial and highly evocative voice.
Superb, just sublime , just so delicate, a favourite of mine, 😍 love it
He was always there in the background as I was moving through my musical journey in the 70's and 80's. I didn't really take any notice until I heard One Of Those Days In England and then I couldn't get enough. Superb talent but sometimes a bit wayward. Well, that's alright by me.
💚
Beautiful
To my Darling Mary. All my love. PS. Hoping you are well, Roy. Stay free. R 💚 🎯 😎
STUNNING
a song I used to be able to sing along to, I still know every lyric & note. From one of my all time top albums. Thanks Roy, I have known your music since early Stonehenge gigs.
I missed the deep "Mmmm" sound at the end of this from the vinyl recording.
Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush turned this song into a beautiful duet in 1978 (so eight years after the release of Roy Harper's version).
😊
One of my all-time heroes
Let yersell go
Great ❤
Very good quality
🎯 🍻 😎
Gorgeous favourite
Roy and Syd Barrett. Great time to be alive right?
Sorry, forgot about Pete Townshend too.
@@ge2623 Roy, Sid and Pete, all three legends in their own right 🔥🙌👏
@@myztikaalx Amen.
❤
Why are we so hung up in each other’s genes x
I think it's "Chains"
Yes, have you heard this… ruclips.net/video/D3SiFY3W1Hw/видео.html
Never heard the original, it's interesting.
better than any cover, including the one from this mortal coil.
