lyrics

Everlasting

Walk in fields, dew and sunshine
Morning, smell of woodbine
Wake up to a love that's everlasting

Take a drink from the raspberry wine there
Watch the bubbles rise and shine there
Cut loose from the days of toil and fasting

The seagull flies and yes, perhaps mechanically
But if that's not beautiful there's no such thing as beauty

So wade through reeds with swans and coots
Listen out for the cuckoo's hoots
Taste the fruit of a love that's everlasting

Move with every passing day
Change your mind, change your ways
Don't be a lonely spider cast in amber

But do let time flow over you
Taste the days of idleness too
And hit your groove with innocence and candour

The seagull flies and yes, perhaps mechanically
But if that's not beautiful there's no such thing as beauty

Let the ivy grow on your wall
Hear the wanton taunting fox call
As light falls in the evening's grandeur

The seagull flies and yes, perhaps mechanically
But if that's not beautiful there's no such thing as beauty

Walk in fields, dew and sunshine
Morning, smell of woodbine
Wake up to a love that's everlasting
Wake up to a love that's everlasting
