The Good Old Days 02:54
lyrics

Take me back To the good old days When life was free Now we're livin' in strange ways Hard to tell the truth from the lies And so much has just been swept aside Oh, take me back To those good old days Now 2019 Seems such a long, long way away Feels like they stopped the clocks And all that used to be is now just history Oh, take me back To those good old days Take me back To the good old days Those good old days Those good old days

One fine day I hope You're gonna wake up and see Been drowning in a sea of despair Lost in your memories Been Spinning out of control And you've lost sight of your goals Feel it in your heart See it in your soul The pure and simple fact You're stronger than you know Just feel it in your heart And see it in your soul This simple timeless fact You're stronger than you know Stronger than you know Been walking down a lonely road With demons on every side And nothing can ever grow In the shadow of your pride When you're life spirals out of control And you've lost sight of your hope Try to feel it in your heart And see it in your soul The pure and simple fact You're stronger than you know Just feel it in your heart See it in your soul This simple timeless fact You're stronger than you know So much stronger than you know When you're life seems out of control And you lose sight of your hope Feel it in your heart See it in your soul This simple timeless fact You're stronger than you know Feel it in your heart See it in your soul The pure and simple fact You're stronger than you know See it in your soul Feel it in your heart You're stronger than you know Stronger than you know See the beauty that surrounds you See the beauty that surrounds you Find that happiness awaits you Beauty that surrounds you

You gave me stargazer lilies As a token of your love Your life was a work of art That I was proud to be part of And the lilies are dead now With all the lovin' things you said then But I'll care for them Yes I'll treasure them Don't want to bury them 'Cus where would I be then All the things you said Are swimming in my head I'm falling for you sweet My life is incomplete We kissed in Paris By the Arc De Triomphe at night Oh, I could never forget Precious moments in time All the things you said Are swimming in my head I'm falling for you sweet My life is incomplete All the things you said Are still swimming in my head I'm falling for you sweet My life is incomplete And the lilies are dead now The lilies are dead And the lilies are dead now The lilies are dead

In The West Country 02:37
lyrics
buy track
Well we were courting for a while Sometimes I'd make her smile But her elusive heart I just couldn't win So I decided to seize the day And whisked her away To the sweet South West Where I long to stay Walking hand in hand Through this green and pleasant land Her heart did melt And she was mine Yes, she finally fell for me Like an apple from a tree When I kissed her tenderly In the West Country Oh she finally fell for me Beneath that apple tree And set her passion free In the West Country Well soon I got down on one knee Now she's shacked up with me And life's hunky dory In the West Country She makes scrumpy with me With apples from our tree And we're merry as can be In the West Country Oh she finally fell for me Like an apple from a tree When I kissed her tenderly In the West Country She finally fell for me Beneath that apple tree And set her passion free In the West Country My heart will always be In the West Country And life's hunky dory In the West Country Yes my heart will always be In the West Country

Embrace 03:49

I want you I need you By my side The longer that you are away The more I long for your embrace The obstacles that are in our way So many problems we must face I feel such wonder when by your side And I'm in heaven when I look in your eyes Yeah, yeah In your eyes I want you I need you Don't go away Into the night Left chasing memories Cast out of sight Down on the floor Into the night Lost in the mystery I need you tonight And forevermore And though our dreams may wash away My love grows stronger day by day Just wanna see you every day Oh I so long for your embrace I feel the wonder When by your side And I'm in heaven When I look in your eyes In your eyes In your eyes And though our dreams may get swept away I'll love you more and more each day And although time is the price we pay You're in my heart and there you'll stay And though our dreams may be washed away I'll love you more and more each day And though time is passing away I know our dreams will come true some day In your eyes In your eyes

I've tried So hard to love you God knows God knows that it's true I've cried And walked through fire You were My only desire Farewell my love You were an angel sent from above Farewell my love You were everything I ever dreamed of As I walk away Into the night Can't turn around Can't say goodbye As I disappear Out of your life Don't think I'll ever Be back in the light Farewell my love You were an angel fell from above Farewell my love You were everything I ever dreamed of Farewell my love You were an angel sent from above Farewell my love Yes, you were everything I ever dreamed of
