"My shadow follows me. Wherever I should chance to go",. John the Gun did say.. "If you should chance to meet me. As I wander to and fro,. Sad would be your day..
You make me nervous when I see you.. I can't imagine what it's like to be you.. It's a mystery to me every day,. And I've got to get away.. . I put a bet on with a bookie.
How often she has gazed from castle windows over. And watched the daylight passing within her captive wall. With no-one to heed her call. . The evening hour is fading within the dwindling sun.
Missed the morning too, didn't rise before noon.. She's a lazy lady today.. Always yawning, you with your eyes on the moon.. You're a crazy lady I'd say, da da da..
Baby, every cloud has a silver lining. Baby every dog really has his day. And it matters to me to see you smiling. Why don't we blow all your cares away ?.
One evening fair I took the air. Down by Blackwaterside. 'Twas gazing all around me. When the Irish lad I spied. . All through the first part of that night.
Winter winds they do blow cold,. The time of year, it is chosen.. Now the frost and fire,. And now the sea is frozen.. . He who sleeps he does not see.
The summer was the reason. Why it took so long to see. That even if I do possess. Some seeds of honesty,. There is no garden,. So how come I have no land?.
Silver tongues are speaking long and hard into the night,. I must be myself and I'll do alright.. Oh please my darling do not make me sad,. Late at night nobody really wants to feel that bad..
Do I ever wonder? You don't know.. You'll never follow, and I'll never show.. D'you see the water and watch it flow. And float an empty shell,. And you think that I'm hiding from the island..
To cross the wide sea I deserted,. From the shore I did fly.. I thought it time that I travelled,. So I took to the roads of the sky.. . It was late and the wind it did gently blow,.
The steps he took were nice and easy.. He never knew he could stumble and go down.. As he saw the buildings and the mountains crumble,. Over the road he would take to the town..
They stood upon the deck. As the ship went out to sea. The wind it took the sails. And left the land a memory. . All upon the shore for. To wonder why the sailor goes.
I sit and wonder at the thought. That someday you'll be going. At the same time I realize. I must not be afraid. You are the one I love. You are the one I touch.
I sit and wonder at the thought. That someday you'll be going. At the same time I realize. I must not be afraid. You are the one I love. You are the one I touch.
There you may stand in your splendour and jewels. Swaying me in both directions.. One is the right one, the other for fools,. How do I make my selection?.
Red and gold, and Halloween have passed us by,. The charcoal branches lean against the rosy sky,. You are so far away, yet I could touch you if I may,.
To pretend that one can find. Fantasies in morning rose. Forbidden fruit, hidden lies. Courtesies that I despise in me. . Take a ride, take a shot now.
