The Delanies Doldrums Lyrics

I heard a sound
I followed it around
Around the world and back
Still all I see is you and me, my love

My rags were torn
My dignity forlorn
I had to choose
So I danced out both my shoes and played the blues, my love

I wanna take you down
Just a little closer now
I want to see you again
In times between, ten world's apart
I'm in the doldrums baby, the doldrums of your mind

Well I was wrong
I wasn't very young
Young enough to feel the way they burn in me
The wild flames of love
So I'll meet you there
Cause I've been everywhere, Soho Square
And still your liberty is killing me, my love

I wanna take you down
Just a little closer now
I want to see you again
In times between, ten world's apart
I'm in the doldrums baby, the doldrums of your mind

I wanna take you down
Just a little closer now
I want to see you again
With sunlight thrown from the sky
I wanna take you down
Just a little closer now
I want to see you again
In times between, ten world's apart
I'm in the doldrums baby, the doldrums of your mind
