Here's more interesting things in songs and lyrics tied to Jethro Tull or about the 1990s in general.

I count the hours… you count the days.
Together, we count the minutes in this Passion Play.
Walk dusty miles. And I ride that train
on a first class ticket, just to be with you again.

Picking up tired feet. Back from a far horizon.
Cleaned up and brushed down. Dressed to look the part.
Fresh from God’s garden, I bring a gift of roses…
To stand in sweet spring water and press them to your heart.

Like the Kipling cat, I walk alone –
Never inviting trouble, never casting the stone.
But this badge of honour is of tarnished tin.
Light your guiding beacon to bring this fisher in.
