It's always good to hear this classic. However few interpreters sing the original , and to my mind, superior, lyrics by the composer, Australian David Bentley . The group, Python Lee Jackson, released the song in 1970 with Rod Stewart on vocals- David Bentley did not consider his voice strong enough...Why the lyrics were changed for this version is a mystery...'Your wounds won't leave a scar' is nonsensical ! Here are the original lyrics ....... In a Broken Dream- by David Bentley. Every day I spend my time, Drinking wine, making rhyme; Waiting here to find the time That I’ll understand- In the days between the hours, Ivory towers; bloody flowers Push their heads into the air, Do I care where the wind may blow, Just let it go! Did someone bow her head ? Did someone break the bread? Good people all in bed Before 9 O’Clock. Don’t push your luck too far, Your wounds might leave a scar; Right now is where you are, In a broken dream! On the pad before my eyes, paper cries, Telling lies; We reached out for the flame, No-one to blame, It’s just life , my love ! And the feelings linger on, Neither silent, Not quite gone; And nothing stays the same While you remain In your broken dream . Did someone…etc Don’t push…etc

A forgotten gem from a prodigious period of music creativity.
Absolutely stunning song and still perfect after all of these years.

In a Broken Dream- by David Bentley.
Every day I spend my time,
Drinking wine, making rhyme;
Waiting here to find the time
That I’ll understand-
In the days between the hours,
Ivory towers; bloody flowers
Push their heads into the air,
Do I care where the wind may blow,
Just let it go!
Did someone bow her head ?
Did someone break the bread?
Good people all in bed
Before 9 O’Clock.
Don’t push your luck too far,
Your wounds might leave a scar;
Right now is where you are,
In a broken dream!
On the pad before my eyes, paper cries,
Telling lies;
We reached out for the flame,
No-one to blame,
It’s just life , my love !
And the feelings linger on,
Neither silent,
Not quite gone;
And nothing stays the same
While you remain
In your broken dream .
Did someone…etc
Don’t push…etc
