Thanks to ravi baskaran for a correction!


Milan, / when I was a kitten, /
We'd sit and sing old songs. /
Milan, / when I was a kitten, /
We'd sit and sing old songs. /


In my head, / listening to windchimes; /
Married a fool / I know. /
In my head, / listening to windchimes; /
Married a fool / I know. /


Why on earth / didn't I wait for you? /
Now look and see who's paying. /
Why on earth / didn't I wait for you? /
Now look and see who's paying. /


Those days / on radio one, /
Set in the east: / who cares? /
Those days / on radio one, /
Set in the east: / who cares? /


Close all / of the doors, maisie, /
Make sure he knows I'm gone. /
Close all / of the doors, maisie, /
Make sure he knows I'm gone. /


Close down / over the ocean. /
Open the doors, / fresh air. /
Close down / over the ocean. /
Open the doors, / fresh air.
