from the original soundtrack for the Film: ‘More’ – 1969.

℗ Pink Floyd Records

The path you tread is narrow, and the drop is sheer and very highThe ravens all are watching from a vantage point nearbyApprehension creeping, like a tube-train up your spineWill the tightrope reach the endWill the final couplet rhyme?

And it′s high time, CymbalineIt’s high time, CymbalinePlease, wake me

A butterfly with broken wings is falling by your sideThe ravens all are closing inAnd there′s nowhere you can hideYour manager and agent are both busy on the phoneSelling coloured photographs to magazines back home

And it’s high time, CymbalineIt’s high time, CymbalinePlease, wake me

The lines converging where you standThey must have moved the picture planeThe leaves are heavy around your feetYou hear the thunder of the trainAnd suddenly it strikes youThat they′re moving into rangeDoctor Strange is always changing size

And it′s high timeCymbalineIt’s high timeCymbalinePlease wake me

And it′s high timeCymbalineIt’s high timeCymbalinePlease wake me
