Marillion - After Me Lyrics






There's a line on her jeans that a ball-point made
From a careless mistake that she can't wash away
And there's a heart on her sleeve from a spill of red wine
There's a piece of green in the blue of her eyes
She named it after me
There's a stray dog she feeds that she found in the street
And he loves her to hold him, but he won't let her keep him
And he claws at the door to be let out at night
And she makes do without him, and she worries about him
She named him after me

So if you ever decide that you have to escape
And travel the world, and you can't find a place
Well, you could wind up believing
That paradise is nothing more than a feeling
That goes on in your mind
So if ever find out what that is
There's something you could do

'Cause if I ever hold that golden dream again
I want to tell you
I'm gonna name it after you

Marillion After Me Comments
  1. P.... ....

    Nothing but marvellous

  2. T.... B....

    Short masterpiece.

  3. W.... D....

    This song crosses the road with Genesis’s Blood on the rooftop, and I love both

  4. b.... ....

    For me, Marillion is one of the very best ASMR musical entities around (Prefab Sprout, Pink Floyd and American Music Club also compete).

  5. D.... D....

    Steve Hogarth is a very strange name for a dog! Great song all the same

  6. J.... K....

    Marillion held such promise with this album. Sadly I was disappointed with the direction that they took after it.

  7. V.... A....

    Heartwarming.song....fabulous

  8. R.... D....

    Just Beautiful, Marillion is one of my Favorite Bands and the Lyrics they write...OMG No one else out there compares!

  9. C.... C....

    This and My Collection, great heartfelt pieces.....

  10. m.... ....

    This song is sooo beautiful but....it is much to short!!! When I take my earphones on the end is coming so fast. Only 3:20...Does anyone know if there is a longer version of that track available???

  11. V.... L....

    What current band could possibly match this one ....?

  12. S.... O....

    perfect

  13. V.... S....

    never realy used to the new voice but must say beautiful performance and song!

    V.... S....

    I gave up after Seasons End but yeah love this

  14. J.... B....

    superb song

  15. r.... w....

    Great follow up to post Fish. I think this and Easter were the best songs on the album. Steve Rothery improved and his guitar tone is exquisite.

  16. c.... ....

    A magnificent little gem buried on Side Two that always satisfies that Marillion sweet tooth.

  17. V.... V....

    My girlfriend just loves this when I sent her the lyrics. She names everything after me and I just love her so much.

    "So if you ever decide, that you have to escape
    And travel the world, and you cant find a place
    Well, you could wind up believin
    That paradise is nothin more than a feelin
    That goes on in your mind
    So if you ever find out what that is
    Theres somethin you could do
    cause if I ever hold that golden dream again
    I want to tell you Im gonna name it after you"
