Lyrics
I walked down by the river where we used to go
And underneath the bridge where we first kissed
The old town that we knew is dead and gone
Gone
The sickly sun shines grayly through the mist
And like the love we used to know
The poisoned river waters flow
And then they’re gone
For some of us still life moves on
Our love is just a relic of the past
You’d never recognise the old town now
Somewhere behind the concrete and the glass
The monuments of England’s sacred cow
Where are all the human beings?
Have they been sent to Milton Keynes?
They used to live round here but now they’re gone
For some of us still life moves on

Lyrics
Happy to see you again
I’m happy ‘cos you’re a girl’s best friend
I love it when you get real close
But I don’t smile so no-one knows
That I’m happy just to be next to you
And I love the way you do the things you do
And it doesn’t have to be so hard
To get happy when love’s in charge
And I’m happy, I’m feeling really free
And I’m not satisfied with misery
I said I’m H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
Did I ever tell you just how much I love you?
I may have forgotten sometimes
With the boats and the stars and the wine in the glass
And the touch of your body on mine
You make me H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)
H A P P P P Y (happy)

Lyrics
Will you start my dreams
Or will you end my schemes
Or will you let me go down so low?
You and me baby
Well we got no friends
Except for you and me baby
This is journey’s end
And I try to hang on to all those precious smiles
But I’m tired of walking and it must be miles
Every time I took your hand
I felt so moved
Did you feel it too?
You and me baby
Well we got no friends
Except for you and me baby
This is journey’s end
And I try to hang on to all those precious words
But they don’t come easy
No I know they hurt
You and me baby
We’ll help each other
And I’ll be your sister if you’ll be my brother
And we won’t be parted
And we will be friends
‘Cause it’s you and me baby
It’s journey’s end
Every time I took your hand
I had a first class ticket
To the promised land
Rosebud, oh Rosebud
He turned to me and wept
A vaguely coded message
I could never intercept
You and me baby
Well we got no friends
Except for you and me baby
This is journey’s end
You and me baby
We’ll help each other
And I’ll be your sister if you’ll be my brother

Lyrics
He said ‘Baby don’t go’
So she sat down again
And they said they’d be friends
Her mother said
She’d told her so
She’d made her own bed
Now she’d have to lie in it
And the time goes summertime slow
And the world stops turning
And they’re dancing in limbo, limbo, limbo
Took my pills today
But I don’t feel better
In a funny sort of way
When it’s too hot for anything
It’s too hot to sleep
Your mind runs down to where
The river runs deep
And the time goes summertime slow
And the world stops turning
And they’re dancing in limbo, limbo, limbo
His dream, peaches and cream
A cheesecake Betty from the celluloid screen
So close he holds out a hand
But she sleeps like a woman
When he wakes like a man
And the time goes summertime slow
And the world stops turning
And they’re dancing in limbo, limbo, limbo
