I Never Lied to You Lyrics by Syd Barrett

Crazy Diamond

1970

There will be shoulder-pressing in the hall
And I won't know if you're here at all
There will be wine and drinking in the yard
There won't be anybody very hard
Lots of things that we can do
And all and more will be for you
Everything I knew I tried with you
But everything to you was never easy
So I went ahead around my world
I saw the things you do
Arriving by your side
To see you looking too
But I know that I know: I never lied to you
It's been just like you're gone
For just one day for so long
Been so hard to bear with you not there
But though I think of you
The things you do when I'm with you
To be with you to be alone
Can only be why I am here
What's meant to be
