In the 60s and the 70s
Before we'd even met
I took those pin-ups to my heart
Cause I hadn't found you yet
In back of cab in the streets of Rome
I drunkly called a name
On 13th floor in Paris hotel
I looked north west in vain
In bus shelter and phone box
Whilst piss the piss ran round my feet
I caught wrong bus, rang wrong number
Cause my life was incomplete
So in case you think it wrong to ask
In case I don't ask you
In case it may just cross your mind
In case it don't, I do
In case you think it's up to me
In case I need a clue
In case you want that bended knee
In case you don't, I do
In pick-up truck on dusty road
The wheel your only friend
What kept that big wheel turning
Was the thought of you at end
On desert highway hitch-hiking
Thumbing from A to B
I knew not where I headed
Before my map to thee
At foot of the Alps in Switzerland
I yodelled through the rain
And it sort of kept me going
To think you'd probably do the same
So in case you think it wrong to ask
In case I don't ask you
In case it may just cross your mind
In case it don't, I do
In case you think it's up to me
In case I need a clue
In case you want that bended knee
In case you don't, I do
Now again we're miles apart
We talk but do not touch
Water, food and alcohol
I miss them half as much
Cause halfway up that mountain pa**
No compa** or no guide
Still don't stand me steady for
When you I'm not beside
So if you need a shelter
I guess I'll need one too
If you want the same address
Even if you don't, I do
Even if you don't, I do
Even if you don't, I do
Even if you don't, I do
Even if you don't, I do
Even if you don't, I do
I do, I do
Even if you don't, I do
I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
