Standing on a golf course
Dressed in P.V.C. I chanced upon a golf girl Selling cups of tea She asked me did I want one Asked me with a grin For three pence you can buy one Full right to the brim So of course I had to have one In fact I ordered three So I could watch the golf girl Could see she fancied me And later on the golf course After drinking tea It started raining golf balls And she protected me Her name was Pat And we sat under a tree She kissed me We go for walks In fine weather All together On the golf course We talk in Morse |

Winter Wine
How you're always flowing, blowing in my mind Like a stream, these magic waters move me to a dream Of travelling with you, drifting carefree, dropping downward through fresh grasses Bubbles merrily as it passes, never knowing where you're going Carry me with you, carry me with you Be conjured up in a midnight dream, ancient castles dark As wandering minstrels play tunes of yesterday When dragons roamed the land, knights in armour gold Charged on horseback bold The maids were saved, the dragons slayed Sail scene, sea green - sailing forward to a new land Treasure waits, paradise gates, for the taking, can't start waiting All you need, but take heed, remember it pays to pay the sandman well Make no fuss, for you must - in stardust, he puts all the colours in your dreams Bells chime three times, naked dancers enter slowly Smoky room, scented gloom, audience eating, fat men drinking Candles burn, a dull red light illuminates the breasts of four young girls Dancing, prancing, provoking - dreams are always ending far too soon Life's too short to be sad, wishing things you'll never have You're better off not dreaming of the things to come Dreams are always ending far too soon Sounds of a distant melody, once played, lost from memory Funny how it's clearer now, you're close to me We'll be together all the time |

I dreamed of all the magic things that be
When we'd ride to a dock on bended knee But you'd just smile and gently shake your head And put a hole through me so I was dead Oh, I'd fall down and I was left alone With a feeling of you still that was my own Oh, I would love to, love to love you Yes, indeed, I do love you, love you My, my, pigs might fly, that can't be bad How you have the cheek to smile and tell me I'm mad A man came through the wall and stood by me Complete with bag of nuts and fancy free He said without a tonal fleeting glance "I'd like to get deep down inside your pants" How you opened up his head and smiled And rubbish from your mouth you ticked inside Oh, I would love to, love to love you Yes, indeed, I do love you, love you My, my, pigs might fly, that can't be bad How you have the cheek to smile and tell me I'm mad |

Got a gig I'd like you to know, we're leaving here tonight
We're going just to sing our song and everything's all right And we'll be missing you but that's for me to care Gotta go, better tell you now, 'cause something's in the air Don't care if I do it or die, that don't mean a thing Yes indeed that's all we need so everybody, sing! Count it out, but into yourself, love that's the thing It's there just if you don't know, it makes your body sing I'm talkin' about me, myself, and all the world around Wanna see you take you by the hand and do some mess around Don't have to know, don't have to know, lovin' takes you back Gets about and I wanna shout, so everybody sing! We'll get you, we'll get you everyday Get you, we'll get you every way Get you, when night-time comes along Get you, we'll get you with our song |

After all this time it's got no better
And the words just seem to pass me by So I think of you in the morning Singing a song to fill my eyes Here I go Can you sing along? Stopped to say hello Something overcame me Didn't want to go and pass you by Looked at me so fair Saw the sun upon you Blow and slip through your hands Summer stole away All the breath within me Leavin' me gaspin' for some air Have so much to say Hardly seem to matter You were more than some one day Didn't we believe we were so? Didn't we believe we were something? Didn't we believe we were more? So much more than words can say Suddenly sunshine, sudden love When the years are gone And we live on memories Will you still remember me that way? Like I do you too No matter where I could be Something's going to steal away Didn't we believe we were so? Didn't we believe we were something? Didn't we believe we were more? So much more than I don't know Suddenly sunshine, sudden love Didn't want to go Didn't want to leave you Something pulling me back hurt me so Wakin' up I found feet upon the pillow Head and shoulders on the ground |

From the forest down below
Came a voice that cried "no" Something seemed nearly dead Making me feel so cold Even the trees seemed to fear There was something unreal Couldn't see very far And the sky had gone dark So we ran, yeah, as fast as we can Only thought to get away On and on we didn't know where we'd gone If it was night or day "Come back", I can hear a voice call I can feel it pulling me down In my head it felt like something had said You better slow down But I tried so hard not to make a sound Feeling better I turned round And coming up behind me I could see... Like shadows in the trees They came creeping unknown Keeping close through the ground I can feel them tramp on Saw the music they knew We were somewhere close by They began to crowd us in Sinkin' deeper in pain |

So there, hardly a word spoken, never care
Someone you know very well passing you by Smile just the same, though you know you've got yourself to blame It's hard to tell what the world has got you by So, living a life that you never know Maybe one day will come to be a song And all the world will sing so big and beautiful Never know what it is but it goes on So we're coming with you, we're coming back to fight again Back with our love for a place in your heart And we'll be together, never we'll sing the same again Oh, how I love you, now we're not apart Come back, the time we'll have and we'll make life a part of you I've tried, I know I've tried but it took so bloody long Unknown you don't see much so you must be a part of me That's just the way I'd have you sung So meet you there With your head in the clouds, crying out loud When we've done all the things that we said we could do We'll bring for you a gold-studded crown you could wear upside-down Just for laughs if that's (what) you want it to, want it to... So we're coming with you, we're coming back to fight again Back with our love for a place in your heart And we'll be together, never we'll sing the same again Oh, how I love you, now we're not apart |

Here am I, alone in your sky
With my mind passing by the thoughts in your eye If I were you, and you were me, Could you feel how unreal your world seems to be? Oh please, don't mind that I'm here For who am I when you're near? I'll try to find a place in my mind Where you know you can go, and leave all behind How does it feel when a dream seems so real And you fly through my eye on a steel rainbow wheel? Searching my mind for thoughts left behind Let you feel you're concealed by a smile-coloured blind Oh please, don't mind that I'm here For who am I when you're near? I'll try to find a place in my mind Where you know you can go, and leave all behind |

When I've got time on my side, there's nothing I can do
to escape from the scenes that have been making me want you So I think of the dreams that I've had, and what's left I'd like to do But my mind draws a blind over me and all I see is you Look into my eyes Tell me what you see Listen to me now I'm needing you - though it may not seem to be I'm needing you - you're all I care to see I'm needing you - and you, and you... I can feel the sun in my hair when I'm sitting here with you Who cares if I'm lost in my mind? My dreams are overdue I've been living more for myself than I've ever done before And my feeling's so real over you, I keep coming back for more When I look at me, all that I feel And all I see is you So look into my eyes I'm needing you - though it may not seem to be I'm needing you - you're all I care to see I'm needing you - and you, and you... |

Don't try to find stars in my eyes

Just take what you need to find the sun For you and I, we have the dream to come Way past the sky of wine-coloured seas Down through the land of limbo From here and there, a cry can be heard Not knowing whether to come - or go Soon you will see all the stars But will you know what you feel, yeah? Don't listen to the man in the skies He lives with the bottle, dream man He'll take what he can with his thoughts in his hand So follow me now and we'll find the sun Now I'm here, please make yourself at home Climb inside our fire Can you see that you never were alone And your world is getting higher? We'll take time to play for you now So fly into my eye We'll take our time flying, we'll take our time We need your mind to be flying, we need your mind... Tell me if there's anything that you need We'll find you another dream Just a smile you'll find will make your own scenes so hot Come on!

With a song on my mind I'm thinking of you
Through the dreams of a million eyes I'll stand still with you And wait till I find the world that you're searching for A cloud-coloured blind has entered my eyes And everything's going a slight shade of purple But me, I don't mind Today is my day I'm living the life that I choose I've found a way… I can see a noser Sit there all alone And dream I'm sitting here While magic fires the moon I turn around my mind And bid farewell to fear Swimming through a wish That I know I'm in a dream I'm changing the music by ear I'll have to leave behind To re-ensure them in And wanting oh so clear Deep inside of time I catch my breath to find I've got so far to go Howlin' through the trees A cry which is my ears I turn around and go Following the dream Is not the easiest thing Out of the shadows I see And blackened till the moon A magic creature moves And says belongs to me |

Up on a hilltop far from the city
Overlooking a stream I heard a sound, it made me look round I looked back where I had just been There just behind a ledge There was a man, he leapt to and fro Clipping away at a hedge Suddenly I heard a ringing singing But he was nowhere to be seen Pulling my trousers up to my knees I waded across the stream Back to the place where I could hear sounds And where the old man once had been There just behind a ledge I looked about, I couldn't make out Where he had been clipping the hedge I could not hear what he was singing But I found my ears ringing with the sound |

Through the dreams of a million eyes I'll stand still with you And wait till I find the world that you're searching for A cloud-coloured blind has entered my eyes And everything's going a slight shade of purple But me, I don't mind Today is my day I'm living the life that I choose I've found a way… I can see a noser Sit there all alone And dream I'm sitting here While magic fires the moon I turn around my mind And bid farewell to fear Swimming through a wish That I know I'm in a dream I'm changing the music by ear I'll have to leave behind To re-ensure them in And wanting oh so clear Deep inside of time I catch my breath to find I've got so far to go Howlin' through the trees A cry which is my ears I turn around and go Following the dream Is not the easiest thing Out of the shadows I see And blackened till the moon A magic creature moves And says belongs to me |

Got a gig I'd like you to know, we're leaving here tonight
We're going just to sing our song and everything's all right And we'll be missing you but that's for me to care Gotta go, better tell you now, 'cause something's in the air Don't care if I do it or die, that don't mean a thing Yes indeed that's all we need so everybody, sing! Count it out, but into yourself, love that's the thing It's there just if you don't know, it makes your body sing I'm talkin' about me, myself, and all the world around Wanna see you take you by the hand and do some mess around Don't have to know, don't have to know, lovin' takes you back Gets about and I wanna shout, so everybody sing! We'll get you, we'll get you everyday Get you, we'll get you every way Get you, when night-time comes along Get you, we'll get you with our song |

Morning has come again
Another day seems surrounding me Here comes that song again With his home round it seems to be guiding me So here with a mirror for the day Somewhere in your mind you'll hear someone say Get in time again ? you don't have, you don't have to know My dreams are all though here I go I like the way you're puttin' dreams in my heart I like the wind blowing in my ears I like my days to have sunshine and stars And no rain to appear You're just a smile, making life so much better I'd give more for you than sunshine Cause I got love for you darling, love for you now Love for you straight from my heart When you need something better, and you don't understand All you've got to do is such a [...] Don't seem to matter if it's all in your mind I'd still believe you're right here On Sunday morning, with a song in my heart It seems to dispel all fear And you'd believe nothing could be so much better And what I'd give for you is sunshine all And I got love for you darling, love for you now Love for you straight from my heart When you need something better, and you don't understand All you've got to do is such a [...] |

So there, hardly a word spoken, never care
Someone you know very well passing you by Smile just the same, though you know you've got yourself to blame It's hard to tell what the world has got you by So, living a life that you never know Maybe one day will come to be a song And all the world will sing so big and beautiful Never know what it is but it goes on So we're coming with you, we're coming back to fight again Back with our love for a place in your heart And we'll be together, never we'll sing the same again Oh, how I love you, now we're not apart Come back, the time we'll have and we'll make life a part of you I've tried, I know I've tried but it took so bloody long Unknown you don't see much so you must be a part of me That's just the way I'd have you sung So meet you there With your head in the clouds, crying out loud When we've done all the things that we said we could do We'll bring for you a gold-studded crown you could wear upside-down Just for laughs if that's (what) you want it to, want it to... So we're coming with you, we're coming back to fight again Back with our love for a place in your heart And we'll be together, never we'll sing the same again Oh, how I love you, now we're not apart |

I've seen days where there's always sunshine
I've stood days in the pouring rain I fall over myself and sometimes I get back on my feet again So you got me all wrong 'Cause I can see what you mean a lot more than you know You got me all wrong And I can see you're just stuck in a hole ? stuck in a hole Don't ask when you know what I said You can't do nothing wrong from right If you come sleeping and passing my way We'll go lazing around tonight Don't get me all wrong 'Cause you can't see what I mean a lot more than you know Don't get me all wrong 'Cause you and me, we'll be stuck in a hole ? stuck in a hole |

You came back too late in better sunshine
Smiled like never before But you know I got such a lazy feeling I doubt if I saw you at all It was no, my man, I was so completely swollen right to the core With a constitution of funny faces and memories of her before I was keeping back my love And saved my time for you Keeping back my love And saving all my dreams for your heart You may need somebody to make it better So don't you need a lie? Well you may be tall and you know it all But I'm certain we'll show you a time If you're feeling hooked, make it good But there's no point leaving alone If it makes you sick when you take your kicks Well, you'd do better going on home I was keeping back my love And saved my time for you Keeping back my love And saving all my dreams for your heart |

The view ? Sixth Avenue
The legs of Waterloo Lily Black tights for dark nights On a trip through Picadilly If you knew the kind of glue She gums her eyelids with Realise, on those eyes That's a gum you'd rather not use From a jar, in the house of Waterloo Lily Painted red, the double bed The biggest in the city Especially sprung, hung undone To stimulate delight Sex machines seem but clean She does things, you call her true Waterloo Lily's got enough to turn us all on Got a bra to fit a car A port upon her back you warm your feet on A corset keeps her in So when you pull a string it lets it all out Lily Waterloo, Piccadilly blue Pint of white on Lily's lip The daily upper door Down the caff, a cup of char Double dogwalk, brown and British Imagine you and Lily too Aboard a double bunk Riding two, it's out of view All the things your sister won't... Waterloo Lily's got enough to turn us all on Got a bra to fit a car A port upon her back you warm your feet on A corset keeps her in So when you pull a string it lets it all out Lily Waterloo, Piccadilly blue |

You talk of all the many things that you have
And you smile from day to day But no one has ever seen any of these And those smiles just fade away Someone keeps shouting out 'I want to know' Well I can't help singing this song When they tell me that the devil is a gentleman too I know I can't go wrong I have to slip away today I've been invited down to stay Yes I feel my going down They say that eight fishes call men in the sea And use man-made for the bait And shoots all the people that fly in the sky That chance on his estate That feeds on salmon, that just has to be seen And none but he can do They tell me this and they tell me that And tell me this is always, always something new You'd better believe it's so I made up my mind to go A whole world waits for you I'll sit with my head thrust down on your knees And smile for you again And you won't have to worry about anything now I'll be halfway there by ten It only takes a moment to decide on the move It all seems so absurd Still I know that the devil is a gentleman too Who never keeps his word I made up my mind to go You'd better believe it's so A whole world waits for me |

The world is mine but for a time
Please hear the love I bring for you to follow Come with me, with diamonds in the sea And stare the hearts of men whose fight in sorrow It's foolish to suppose you know me well, I know Everything that I touch won't turn to gold Money's not my way although your own lost soul's Waiting for the day to break that hole And I love you I've never loved someone like I do I love you The world is yours if you want me to I love you I've never loved someone like I do Whisper please some scandal to the trees I'm sure they would enjoy themselves enormously Will you and I sit up in the sky And chase our minds through space and time relentlessly? Circumstances indicate for you and I If the time is right, we bid a fond farewell Some friends of mine, the world they take on for a while Then seldom find the time they know so well And I love you I've never loved someone like I do I love you The world is yours if you love me too I love you I've never loved someone like I do |

My friend Ferdinand will, if he can
Cross that bridge to a little girl's skirt Hands on which he's a terrible flirt Says it's good, tells me that I should Copy him as much as I can Ride into a dock with only one hand "I know you gotta be kiddin' me No man could ever do that and get away" My, my, my, my, Ferdinand Oh, you're telling lies again, Ferdinand Copin' lay one day Said to me 'Boy, hey! Did you hear what is coming from there?' She was pointing at Ferdinand's hand In walks Ferdinand's room Made she cries and beating her chest I know I got what it takes, but boy! You really got the rest "Oh, no, you gotta be kiddin' me! No more, it's just what I need to fade away" My, my, my, my, Ferdinand Oh, you're still a one-man hand, Ferdinand |

If you don't know, back in the limes
Gotta get used to your feelings No, no, you can't knock all the time Don't know then how you feel Well I wanna see walk a wonder Such talk will make for you only sorrow You bet, I love you so But I want on my way And I can't stay till tomorrow Gotta look on the left, look on the right Gotta believe that there's something I don't know much, but I love you still That I do In through the back, out through the head Take all the time that you find there Sit right down on a belliful packet for two Break down the line, shake off the head Put down a sunny time feeling Ask how and decided you're dead Welcome back .......... real Thank God you offer time for coming After all no one knows till tomorrow Turn off your magic ............ Go on for fun, pick up a gun till tomorrow |

Every star that has died leave a void
Now locked inside some reel of celluloid In some old archive In this age of video, could we know Or understand the magic and the joy That was Hollywood? Hollywood, movie queens Heart-throb magazines Memory's all we've got Videos of Hollywood I love all those films, so grand I see them still, the Cecil B. De Mille's On the silver screen The legend lingers on, but with time The era gone, now images and songs That was Hollywood Hollywood, movie queens Heart-throb magazines Memory's all we've got Videos of Hollywood |

Winter Wine
How you're always flowing, blowing in my mind Like a stream, these magic waters move me to a dream Of travelling with you, drifting carefree, dropping downward through fresh grasses Bubbles merrily as it passes, never knowing where you're going Carry me with you, carry me with you Be conjured up in a midnight dream, ancient castles dark As wandering minstrels play tunes of yesterday When dragons roamed the land, knights in armour gold Charged on horseback bold The maids were saved, the dragons slayed Sail scene, sea green - sailing forward to a new land Treasure waits, paradise gates, for the taking, can't start waiting All you need, but take heed, remember it pays to pay the sandman well Make no fuss, for you must - in stardust, he puts all the colours in your dreams Bells chime three times, naked dancers enter slowly Smoky room, scented gloom, audience eating, fat men drinking Candles burn, a dull red light illuminates the breasts of four young girls Dancing, prancing, provoking - dreams are always ending far too soon Life's too short to be sad, wishing things you'll never have You're better off not dreaming of the things to come Dreams are always ending far too soon Sounds of a distant melody, once played, lost from memory Funny how it's clearer now, you're close to me We'll be together all the time |

Sat down, turn around boy, gotta let out of here
Silly little sod, you made me shed a tear Showing me minor roads of varying cold Making the world so young and me so old Time dime, time dime, doing what I could in the day Lazy little swine, I'm sure I heard you say "Sure I took a trip or two inside my head" Was there in the road he showed me, stone cold dead Yours was a face I remember very well See, touch and feel, even smell Imagine how I felt when the face I saw was me Crisics end down the line, set me free When the time is over ? oh, oh, oh And you're feeling somewhat colder ? oh, oh, oh And your face is on the run And your body's almost done Well, you won't have to notice anymore Come inside and tell me ? oh, oh, oh What you're tryin' to sell me ? oh, oh, oh Did it ever cross your mind? Did you ever read the sign? Well, you won't have to notice anymore Hear me a-callin', I've got a dream in my hand I close my eyes and realise, now I understand If you've got a problem ? Christ, you've got to unload The price you pay is that you may explode |

Yesterday's face
Is not the one I choose to see Nor is the face Of someone who gets much too close to me I've got this place of my own Where I can go when I feel I'm coming down We'll do our best to ensure You'll feel secure if you come Love is the thing you crave But it lies asleep inside of all your heads Please, why don't you live a bit today? For tomorrow you may find that you are dead I've got this place of my own Where I can go when I feel I'm coming down We'll do our best to ensure You'll feel secure if you come |

When I've got time on my side, there's nothing I can do
to escape from the scenes that have been making me want you So I think of the dreams that I've had, and what's left I'd like to do But my mind draws a blind over me and all I see is you Look into my eyes Tell me what you see Listen to me now I'm needing you - though it may not seem to be I'm needing you - you're all I care to see I'm needing you - and you, and you... I can feel the sun in my hair when I'm sitting here with you Who cares if I'm lost in my mind? My dreams are overdue I've been living more for myself than I've ever done before And my feeling's so real over you, I keep coming back for more When I look at me, all that I feel And all I see is you So look into my eyes I'm needing you - though it may not seem to be I'm needing you - you're all I care to see I'm needing you - and you, and you... |

Standing on a golf course
Dressed in P.V.C. I chanced upon a golf girl Selling cups of tea She asked me did I want one Asked me with a grin For three pence you can buy one Full right to the brim So of course I had to have one In fact I ordered three So I could watch the golf girl Could see she fancied me And later on the golf course After drinking tea It started raining golf balls And she protected me Her name was Pat And we sat under a tree She kissed me We go for walks In fine weather All together On the golf course We talk in Morse |

I dreamed of all the magic things that be
When we'd ride to a dock on bended knee But you'd just smile and gently shake your head And put a hole through me so I was dead Oh, I'd fall down and I was left alone With a feeling of you still that was my own Oh, I would love to, love to love you Yes, indeed, I do love you, love you My, my, pigs might fly, that can't be bad How you have the cheek to smile and tell me I'm mad A man came through the wall and stood by me Complete with bag of nuts and fancy free He said without a tonal fleeting glance "I'd like to get deep down inside your pants" How you opened up his head and smiled And rubbish from your mouth you ticked inside Oh, I would love to, love to love you Yes, indeed, I do love you, love you My, my, pigs might fly, that can't be bad How you have the cheek to smile and tell me I'm mad |
