the love song love song of j. alfred prufrock - clem turner lyrics

[chorus]
i know the question
i have the words
there will be time
dare i disturb the universe
before i take my toast and tea
please do not leave

[verse one]
i measure ‘worth it’
i force my strength
i wept and fasted
i wept and prayed
i am no prophet *
that is not what i meant
that is not it at all

[verse two]
beneath the music
a farther room
i measure life out
with coffee spoons
it does not matter
i’m growing older
to swell a progress
start scenes in twos
[verse three]
i’m no prince hamlet
i cannot be
in your october
a yellow sleep
prepares its faces
a hundred visions
and indecisions
won’t sing to me

[bridge]
i see them riding seaward on the waves
the footmen call * in short, i was afraid
i’ve got a question in my pocket, safe
unhappy endings, i antic*p*te

and would it have been worth it, after all?
to just confess and take the blow?
i take you by the hand and into the ocean
come on, then, you and i
now let us go

[chorus]
i know the question
i have the words
there will be time
dare i disturb the universe
before i take
a gulp of sea
i cannot leave
i measure ‘worth it’
i force my strength
i wept and fasted
i wept and prayed
i am no prophet *
that is not what i meant
that is not it at all
