Quite Short for a Goalkeeper
Tom Rosenthal
[Verse 1]
I'm quite short for a goalkeeper
Quite wise for a fool
Quite loose for the rule
I'm quite sane for a wild boy
Quite late for a bird
Quite lonesome for the herd
Oh I never knew
But love in the end was you
I knew nothing
[Verse 2]
I'm quite lost for a cartographer
Quite square for a clown
Unworthy of the crown
Oh I'm quite loud for a librarian
Quite young for a judge
Too heavy for a nudge
Oh I just could not see
That life in the end was me
I saw nothing
[Verse 3]
I'm quite sick for a sailor
Quite civil for a war
Quite quiet for the roar
And I could not show
That life in the end would know
We were everything
