Martin Howard

Martin Howard (1725–1781) was a politician in colonial Rhode Island. An eminent lawyer, politician, phisiocrat and sceptical philosopher, and had been a delegate from Rhode Island to the Albany Congress. He was the only prominent American to publicly support the Stamp Act of 1765, in his pamphlet "A Letter from a Gentleman at Halifax to His Friend in Rhode Island," (1765) in which he asserted that Parliament had the power to impose taxes on the colonies. Fleeing Rhode Island, he was appointed Chief Justice of North Carolina (1767–1775). A Loyalist, he returned to England when the Revolution broke out.

You stole a glance, you stole a moment
You stole everything I had
And now I fish for compliments 
It can't have been that bad
I look into my mirror and the only thing I see
Is that bleary wide-eyed innocence
Of the fool that is in me

Don't go away, don't go away

So I stand shivering, naked and exposed
Wanting to be loved and wanting it to show
And feeling doubly sick, at how I hurt you so
Feeling doubly sick, at how I hurt you... so ... so

And the latent contradictions
In this crazy age we live
Are responsible for screwing up the ones that you want to be with
You could wrap me round you finger
O how I wish you would
And I would shout out to the world
That we could be so good

Don't go away, don't go away

So I stand shivering, naked and exposed
Wanting to be loved and wanting it to show
And feeling doubly sick, at how I hurt you so
Feeling doubly sick, at how I hurt you... so ... so

And now those days are past
We go our separate ways 
And the thing that's really haunting me 
Is counting off the days
I'll probably never see you again, it can't be that way
I'll probably never see you again, we both know it'll be that way

Don't go away, don't go away
Don't go away
Don't go away
Don't go away
Don't go away
