Ever seen a blind man cross the road
trying to make the other side Ever seen a young girl growing old trying to make herself a bride So what becomes of you my love When they have finally stripped you of The handbags and the gladrags That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you Once I was a young man and all I thought I had to do was smile You are still a young girl and you bought everything in style so once you think you're in you're out 'cause you don't mean a single thing without the handbags and the gladrags that your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you Sing a song of six-pence for your sake And drink a bottle full of rye Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake And bake them all in a pie They told me you missed school today So what I suggest you just throw them all away the handbags and the gladrags that your poor old Granddad had to sweat to buy you They told me you missed school today So I suggest you just throw them all away the handbags and the gladrags that your poor old Granddad had to sweat to buy you |

The first time ever I saw your face,
I thought the sun rose in your eyes, And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave, To the dark and endless skies, The first time ever I kissed your mouth, I felt the earth move in my hands, Like the trembling heart of a captive bird, That was there at my command my love, The first time ever I lay with you, I felt your heart so close to mine, And I new our joy would fill the earth, And last 'till the end of time, The first time ever I saw your face, Your face, your face, your face. |

How can I go forward when I don't know which way I'm facing?
How can I go forward when I don't know which way to turn? How can I go forward into something I'm not sure of? Woo, oh no, oh no, How can I have feelings when I don't know if it's a feeling? How can I feel something if I just don't know how to feel? How can I have feelings when my feelings have always been denied? Woo, oh no, oh no, You know life can be long, And you got to be so strong, And the world is so tough, Sometimes I feel I've had enough, How can I give love if I don't know what it is I'm giving? How can I give love when I just don't know how to give? How can I give love when love is something I ain't never had? Woo, oh no, oh no You know life can be long You've got to be so strong And the world she is tough Sometimes I feel I've had enough How can we go forward when we don't know which way we're facing? How can we go forward when we don't know which way to turn? How can we go forward into something that we're not even sure of? Woo, oh no, oh no |

Seven day holiday in the rain, it's June
At the time we were plain old me and you It didn't matter that the sky came down I never really felt like going out Seven days watching rain inside with you Saturday watched the game you fried our food Nothing busy nothing easy but something you It didn't matter that we couldn't eat out My ship sank and my shoes were damp Seven days hearing rain inside with you There's always time to complain about the weather Seasons change in a day just like each other But we wait for summer Seven day holiday in the rain with you Lie awake drinking late is all that's left to do Not a sound but the rain on the pale blue roof It didn't matter that we couldn't sleep out I never really felt like sleeping rough Seven day holiday drinking dry with you There's always time to complain about the weather Seasons change in a day just like each other But we wait for summer Seven day holiday in the rain with you Seven day holiday in the rain with you |

He asked me 'So where have you been?'
Let me think now let me see I was stood once where Hitler's feet stood When he made a speech in Nuremburg in '38 When he tried to build the perfect race he said 'Black men ain't gonna run along side our perfect sons' There's Dallas to the library The place they ended Kennedy I stood were Oswald took his shot In my opinion there's a bigger plot Cost less back into the left, the picket fence, the better bet Paris came and summer went The tunnels now a flower bed. The famous turf that made Geoff Hurst The vodka stops to quench my thirst The Golden Gate stroke Alcatrez The fat man failed to get us passed Is Jimmy's corner in 'Raging Bull' De Niro's jokes and bottle pills Elvis tales from Mr Wood. Would any Richard Burton if you could The tourists stare at tourist stops One more picture one more got Another a top up for a change it makes you think, I makes you sane Talking more about yourself There's a mirror to have a check Checks are always passing through Some depart but a lot come too The restaurant talk of pick your teeth Bite your tongue oh chewy meat' Sleep or drink or drink to sleep One more week and we will meet We talk of what we haven't done Since we departed back a month We argue while we have to shout All in all it's nice to be out |

Its just time for another
Dial me another one When we're leaving with the others Going home sweet home Surprised Someone Put my key into the front door Even quiet but i'm drunk When we're creeping up the old stairs Tripping over the one The one thats done *Now my head has started spinning Spinning round and round Could be your or the man in our bed Or it could be the wine Surprise Still time for another Could dial me another one. But we're leaving with the others Going home sweet home Surprise no one Dropped my keys into the river Singing louder than a drunk But i'm sleeping on the old stairs Staying up to the sun Down another one *Repeat Still time for another Dial me another one And we're leaving with the the others Going home sweet home Surprise no one |

I wanna live, I wanna give
I've been a miner for a heart of gold It's these expressions that never give Keeps me searching for a heart of gold And I'm getting old They keep me searching for a heart of gold And I'm getting old I've been to Hollywood, I've been to redwood I've crossed the ocean for a heart of gold I've been in my mind, its such a fine line, That keeps me searching for a heart of gold And I'm getting old It keeps me searching for a heart of gold And I'm getting old Keeps me searching for a heart of gold, Keeps me searching and I'm growing old Keeps me searching for a heart of gold I've been a miner for a heart of gold And I'm getting old. |
