“The Scream”, or “The Cry”, Edvard Munch 1893

No Time To Cry

It’s just a feeling
I get sometimes
A feeling
Sometimes
And I get frightened
Just like you
I get frightened too
but it’s…

Everything will be alright
Everything will turn out fine
Some nights I still can’t sleep
And the voices pass with time
And I keep

No time for tears
No time to run and hide
No time to be afraid of fear
I keep no time to cry
No time for heartache
No time to run and hide
No time for breaking down
No time to cry

Now when you climb into your bed tonight
And when you lock and bolt the door
Just think about those out in the cold and dark
’cause there’s not enough love to go ’round
No there’s not enough love to go ’round

And sympathy is what we need my friends
And sympathy is what we need
And sympathy is what we need my friends
’cause there’s not enough love to go ’round
No there’s not enough love to go ’round

Now half the world hates the other half
And half the world has all the food
And half the world lies down and quietly starves
’cause there’s not enough love to go ’round
No there’s not enough love to go ’round
No there’s not enough love to go ’round
No there’s not enough love to go ’round

And sympathy is what we need my friends
And sympathy is what we need
And sympathy is what we need my friends
’cause there’s not enough love to go ’round
No there’s not enough love
No there’s not enough love to go ’round

lyrics

In the late 1960s she [Patti D'Arbanville] pursued a career as a model in London, where she met Cat Stevens and they developed a romance from 1968 until 1970. She was the inspiration for at least two of his hit songs: “Lady D’Arbanville”, and “Wild World”, which were recorded on Mona Bone Jakon, and Tea for the Tillerman. She left him for periods of time to continue her modeling career in Paris, and New York City, and was a peripheral part of Warhol’s Factory scene. In an interview with Warhol, she said wistfully, that she’d heard the song “Lady D’Arbanville”; saying, “Stevens wrote that song “Lady D’Arbanville” when I left for New York. I left for a month, it wasn’t the end of the world was it? But he wrote this whole song about ‘Lady D’Arbanville, why do you sleep so still.’ It’s about me dead. So while I was in New York, for him it was like I was lying in a coffin… he wrote that because he missed me, because he was down… It’s a sad song.” Stevens had adopted a stage name which D’Arbanville never used; instead preferring his true name, Steven Demetre Georgiou.
