Here are some Cymbaline lyrics.   Has anyone got a note of the Pink
Floyd official version to compare them with?

Cymbaline

The path you tread is narrow and the drop is sheer and very high
Ravens are all watching from a vantage point nearby
Apprehension creeping like a tubetrain up your spine
Will the (?)tightrope reach the end?  Will the final couplet rhyme?
And it's high time, Cymbaline.  High time Cymbaline
Please wake me.

Butterfly with broken wings has fallen by your side
Ravens all are closing in, there's nowhere you can hide
Your manager and agent are both busy on the phone
Selling coloured photographs to magazines back home
And it's high time, Cymbaline.   High time, Cymbaline.
Please wake me.

(?)Lines converging waves and they must have moved the picture frame
Leaves are heavy round your feet, you hear the thunder of the train
Suddenly it strikes you that they're moving into range
And Dr. Strange is always changing sides
And it's high time, Cymbaline.   High time, Cymbaline
Please wake me.
