Well I wish I'd never said The things I did the morning after You had shared yourself with me In so many ways Now [?] In my mind [?] laughter To see you now and then [?] And I want to wipe it off Now I want to wipe it off I want to wipe it off And get a clean slate Everyone I loved was ill In their mind or in their body And I knew not how to heal The things that weighed And every one of my attempts Has only led me to a folly And the comfort of this hold on me persuades [Chorus x2] What a long time it has been Since I sat to hear to the wind See it come a whistling its little tunes Now the memories of you They can arise and fall again I don't need them to remain a little gloom I don't want to wipe it off No, don't want to wipe it off Want to wipe it off And get a clean slate I want to wipe it off Now you want to wipe it off No need to wipe it off Got a clean, clean slate
