The verse that time forgot (Nick Harper)

Fitting for her so
I'll visit her here where the bells never toll
In a place that is no place
In an age that has no clock
Where the years won't touch her face
My beautiful girl
In the verse time forgot

And my friends are all here laughing
In strangely familiar scenes
They pour onto the page
Like happy babbling streams

But there in the middle
She glitters like gold cannot
My beatiful girl
In the verse that time forgot

There's a circle around her
One family
They trickle round my heart
Like happy babbling streams

And at las I meet myself
A boy at play
We pick ouselves out a perfect spot
But I must be going
Though I'd love to stay
With the good hearted boy
In the verse time forgot

And he'll stay here playing in my song
The funny little boy
Still in love
Loving her
Forever.
