Thought i was light years ahead of themBut i was blind they were only milesLight years ahead of them, he must be right
I was only pretending to be just another wannabeA love supreme in flip flopsThere might be peacocks in disguiseYou’d better practice your passing shotsBeware of bishops dealing with their ups and downs
You were born in Christchurch babyListen to the bellsThey’re ringing again in your earsThey resound in the eveningThey resound when you’re youngThey’re sound in the morningThey resound when you’re getting old/get things done

Hello girl
Hello girl, won’t you tell me your name
Come on now, let’s play my game
In my room it’s you i want around
Tell me how it feels to be by my side
Don’t be shy kiss me on my lips
Let’s get high it’s just the way it is
Lying on the bed i’m watching you
You’re so beautiful i can’t believe it’s true
Lying on the bed i’m watching you
You’re so beautiful i can’t believe it’s true
Hello girl, won’t you tell me your name
Come on now, let’s play my game
In my room it’s you i want around
Tell me how it feels to be by my side

did i really swoop where heaven amazed
through the bright universe that's shine and blazed
as it's some echoes of red and blue
shine on the night and let it thru

as it's some echoes of red gold and blue
shine on night and let it thru

Shala la la la
Hold tight.
Shala la la la
It's gonna be alright.
These days are lost and long;
All things are crooked and cold;
I'm itching to be numb.
I don't wanna see or know.
Shala la la la
Hold me.
Shala la la la
Hold me.
Let me take you into my arms;
Shield you from weary and pain.
Who are they who’ve not known harm?
Oh love, I just can't say.
Shala la la la
Hold me tight
Shala la la la
It's gonna be alright
I'll sing you a tune –
When love dies in the dark.
A song for those who lose;
Life gone and took my spark.
Shala la la la
Hold me.
Shala la la la
Hold me.
The day is lost and long;
All things are crooked and cold.
We’re fixing to be numb.
I don't wanna see or know.
Shala la la la
Well it's alright.
Shala la la la
Get me through the night.
Shala la la la
It's gonna be alright.
Shala la la la
Hold me tight.
Shala la la la
Hold me tight.
Shala la la la
It's gonna be alright.
Shala la la la
It's gonna be alright.
