SEVEN MONTHS
From the album '
Portishead' [4:15]


LYRICS:

How can I forget you
Disregard how I feel
Silently listen
To the words I can't see

For as long as I have tried
And as low as I can be
I will never resign myself
From the trial I seek

Why should I forgive you
After all that I've seen
Quietly whisper
When my heart wants to scream

For as long as I have tried
And as low as I can be
I will never resign myself
From the trial I seek

There's no time to rest
Or to reconsider
For this cruel unsaid, won't concede

For as long as I have tried
And as low as I can be
I will never resign myself
From the trial I seek

COMMENTS:

I like the vocal attitude. Dave
It actually took 14 months to write but at that stage when we named it, it was only seven so we kept it. It's really difficult to describe the tracks at the moment, mainly because I can describe them but I don't know what I feel about them. Hopefully in a year's time I might be able to say I know what that one's about now.It's really difficult to judge the stuff now. It's a string-based thing with more of an old-style song over it but it still never got over about 90 beats per minute. Geoff
Felt like seven years. Adrian
