It's All Over Now

Are you really single? Or do you have a wife?
Have you got a girlfriend from a former life?
Are you busy chalking up the number of your lays?
You gotta query every flipping thing these days!

Your home is lovely. I thought you lived alone
Until I heard the lady on the answerphone!
I guess I'm just too gullible to understand your ways
You gotta check a billion flipping points these days!

I've no time either. You're not the only one.
Although you convince me you're important bar to none.
In your world of treachery, it seems that lying pays.
You gotta cover every flipping base these days!

Walk With Me And Take My Hand

 

When I'm sad and all despairing
When I don't know how things stand.
That's when you will be there for me
Walk with me and take my hand.

When I'm in that deep dark cavern
Far from any homely land
That's when I will hear you calling:
"Walk with me and take my hand".

When concern is all-consuming
And my trust is built on sand,
That's when you will touch my shoulder,
Walk with me and take my hand.

Love Lost

It was the nightingale and not the lark
That sang when you embraced me in the dark
I wished that time would put her hands to rest
And we could lie in love, as lovers blessed.

Affirm your love for me with each caress
Your passion you in tenderness express
Yet still you fail to hide the flagrant lie
And I must face the truth I can't deny.

My love is empty, it is lifeless, lost
Succumbed to painful falsehood at high cost.
I wish that time had put her hands to rest
And we could lie in love, as lovers blessed.
