Things they taught you at school
Can sometimes disappear
Why do you disbelieve
The things I said were true
Of a land nothing planned
It just happens
Girls and boys who shout come out to play
With a queen cold as ice
You'd best take my advice
To steer clear of her charm
She's easily annoyed
What's that sound, you turn around
It just happens there are bells
And reindeer drawing a sleigh
There troubled with snow covered peaks
Till the end of time
We know you're a daughter of Eve
And a friend of mine - no
Yes I'm certain that you
Will influence the rest
She could turn you to stone
You're suitably impressed
And so easily led
There just happen to be repercussions
Months ahead
Oh there troubled with snow covered peaks
Till the end of time
We know you're a daughter of Eve
And a friend of mine - no

Body was found at the vicarage quarter past nine.
People die from sudden strokes all the time.
Verdict of misadventure mending the roof.
The doctors niece, whilst tending the rosehedge.
Stung to death by a swarm of bees.
"My wife's cooking is out of this world take a bite".
Died from some rare tropical disease in the night.
Dab hand at pharmaceuticals, still no one guessed.
The village vet was drowned in the pigswill
You wonder whose turn will be next
"In the world of sinners all are condemned
my son this gun's loaded"
A missing floorboard then screaming from the belfry he fell.

When I feel I'm over reacting
and I'm trying too hard
it might be that I need to
get out in the country
my friend
There are many ways of seeking my fortune
I don't really have to lose my mind
on the highway (my) thoughts always racing
away to the sun
no one's stopping me
from lying around
There's surely something to it all
Away to the sun
no one's stopping me
from lying around
There's surely something to...
taking a friend
I know that I can share
another day in the warm country air
When I feel I'm over reacting
and I'm trying too hard it might
be that I need to get out in the country...
away to the sun
no one's stopping me
from lying around
There's surely something to
taking a friend
I know that I can share
another day in the warm country air

The local radio says sorry time to go
But I don't sleep too well.
Where are those Southern Belles
Tryin to get a telephone line through South Caroline
Your call may bring somebody down for miles around
I'm watching her eyes again.
I won't use no fountain pen.
The lady isn't here. The message wasn't clear.
She left an hour ago, screamed from the floor below.
Mother nature never gives in, she wants you to sing
But how can I go on just singing this song
My car's out of gas again.
Hurry home to see my friend
Money won't help you to win a new look at things
Loving can bring you down so you fall
Then why do you still try to get up at all
Your good and bad side showing through
Problems are a part of you
You must love someone else or face life by yourself
You may expect a call.
She's waiting in the hall
See the garden grows and it grows nobody else knows
And you can wear just any old thing,
the show can begin
I'm falling asleep to dream.
No more hills to climb it seems
Money won't help you to win a new look at things
You never give in
So why don't you sing
But how can I go on just singing this song
My car's out of gas again
I'll be home to see my friend
. . .

There are many friends that I once knew
who felt the same special thing that I share with you
They've grown apart in different ways
I wonder if someone hears as I start to say
I'm hoping love will last
Yes I'm hoping love will last
On and on, on and on
Why do I dream love's labour's lost
I'm just a face with a name that you soon forgot
But when I'm scared the most, the nightmare ends
then safe and sound I awake in your arms again -
I'm hoping love will last
Yes I'm hoping love will last
On and on, on and on
How can I go on alone when your love,
When your love is all I've known
Sometimes we stay many miles away
You know you're here every minute throughout the day
within my thoughts,
Within my thoughts so take good care
I only wait for the moments we both can share
Hoping love will last
Yes I'm hoping, hoping love will last
On and on, on and on
. . .

There are many things that I would rather do
Many many places I would rather be
Splendour wings of ambition
Melted by the sun
To the sea of remorse
Graveyard come
Dogs that bark at night are fearful of the moon
Will the sound of children's toys remain in tune
The same light shines on vineyards
That makes deserts its true
What awaits me if I follow you - ooh
And all that's behind me
And I flew this time
Never falling
Since your eyes first touched mine
