about

The underlying love story in George Orwell's 1984 always moved me more than the obvious themes. I don't know, maybe love and the betrayal of it was the main theme. The song came to me after watching the movie version with John Hurt and Richard Burton.

lyrics

"Oranges and lemons say the bells of Saint Clemons"
Do you remember?
I think I've forgotten, I learned it when I was young in the school yard

When paper hearts were cut and passed like secrets
And blushing faces couldn't lie
When sweetheart candies and sunlit daisies
Were given like first kisses in the sun

"You owe me three farthings say the bells of Saint Martins"
Do you remember?
I think I've forgotten, I learned It when I was young in the school yard

Now we've grown up beautiful, beautiful and damned
Time won't wait for us to be born again
And the world grows bigger, bigger than you or I
