Well they said goodbye to their families
Said goodbye to their friends
With the pipe dreams in their heads
And very little money in their hands

The world was on fire
And no one could save me but you

NeedToKnow101 · 14/06/2021 21:29

And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand,
They danced by the light of the moon,
The moon,
The moon,
They danced by the light of the moon.

They went to sea in a Sieve, they did,
In a Sieve they went to sea:
In spite of all their friends could say,
On a winter’s morn, on a stormy day,
In a Sieve they went to sea!

The owl and the pussycat?

You see, said she
He’s as tame as tame can be
I’ll sail him down the Nile

NeedToKnow101 · 14/06/2021 22:03

Over the past few years
To the traditional sounds of the English summer
The drone of lawnmowers
The smack of leather on willow
Has been added a new noise
What were the skies like when you were young?
90s
