Beaujolais Day Lyrics - Marillion

I went to Morisson's grave at Pere Lachaise cemetery 

The stony flowers and the matching graffiti were guiding me 

To the steps inside of me 

And what would you do if I got down on my knees to you? 

What would you do if I lied to your face? 

Could you still hold your dreams? 

Could you live with your silent face? 

So what would you do, would you walk right through me? 

Would you stand in the way like the others before? 

Get in the way 

Would you drink to me next Beaujolais day? 

Tell me the truth, save a prayer for me 

I would love to leave you but you would cry all night long 

Eternal romantic victory failed on Beaujolais day 

I heard a wheelchair whisper across a stale silent gymnasium 

Trailing an ivy league jacket like a matador 

Through the jitterbug steps of the night before 

Through the chalk white chill and the tear fandango 

Heading away to the inner wrangle 

Do we cry for a cell? 

Do we need for a cell? 

What would you do, would you cry for me? 

Could you set off, could we go gently? 

Blame it away 

Do you really want to head for the open door? 

Got to crack a bottle while you dream for me 

Just an absent friend and a misery 

Laying awake do we stay right there 

'Til Beaujolais day, on Beaujolais day 

So what would you do, would you lie to me? 

Would you sit right back in a victory? 

Would you play for me? 

Could you die for me? 

So what would you do, would you walk right through me? 

Heading away saying it's just another victory 

This is Beaujolais day
