Listening to A Whiter Shade of Pale ...

I'm listening to A Whiter Shade of Pale -

Another madeleine -

I'm fifteen years old -

I weigh as much as a yellow feather -

I float over the pavements of my small town -

I know, even then, that this dreamy strangeness will mark my life -

I'll be a shadow passing through my houses -

Those whose arms would hold me touching only air -
