Down by the Seaside
but you don't know where that is,
when your friends come round smiling
and greet you with a kiss,
Then push you in the dirt
from behind.
There's no time like the right time
when the now times wearing thin
for their silver tinsel dresses
and their microwave skin
and their cheap books of romance.
I think I'll take my chances.
So I run like I'd run from a flood,
like you know it's understood.
That your golden hair
was never meant to wear
a paper crown.
You know that a smile
is their workaday face.
You can't cal
The Promise
You gave me back my soul again by showin' me
the laughter and the wonder in your eyes
saved me from the shuttered man I used to be
opened up the windows of my life
And the happiness you've given me for lovin' you
is sweeter love and deeper every day
I can't stop the changes that you're growin' through
or someone new from stealin' you away
Chorus:
So darlin' when it's time you can spread your wings
and I'll set you free - to fly away - and it's ok
cause darlin' time changes everything
but it won't change me
I love you - oh... I love you
Inside of me you'll always be my valentine
I pray your freedom makes your dreams come through
as long as there's a heartbeat in this soul of mine
you'll know there's someone so in love with you
Chorus:
So darlin' when it's time you can spread your wings
and I'll set you free - to fly away - and it's ok
cause darlin' time changes everything
but it won't change me
I love you - oh... I love you
