The Autumn Stone lyrics

Over Bridges of Sighs
To rest my eyes in shades of green
Under Dreaming Spires
To Itchycoo Park, that's where I've been
(Chorus 1)
What did you do there? - I got high
What did you feel there? - Well I cried
But why the tears there? - I'll tell you why - yyyyy
It's all to beautiful, It's all to beautiful
It's all to beautiful, It's all to beautiful
(Bridge)

Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead

Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb

There's such a lot of good ways to be bad
And so many bad ways to be good
And they might rent it
I hate to tell them
'Sorry, but I haven't got the money anymore
Just for the day I thought I'd leave love alone
Hold hands with day
And if I'm so bad why don't they take me away
Just like what you hear with a shell pressed to your ear
That's the sea in the trees in the morning

Wouldn't it be nice
To get on with me neighbours
But they make it very clear
They've got no room for ravers
They stop me from groovin',
They bang on me wall
They doing me crust in
It's no good at all
Lazy Sunday afternoon
I got no mind to worry
I close my eyes and drift away
Here we all are sittin' in a rainbow
Gore blimey hello Mrs Jones
How's old Bert's lumbago (mustn't grumble)

Listen, it's been three months
Since I was last with you
So many people tryin' to
Stop me getting through
The doorman he just laughed
But I don't want no autograph
Now you listen to me baby
All I want to do
Is talk to you
You know I didn't stop you doing
Things you wanted to do
But now it's gone too far
It looks like I'm losing you
But I don't want sympathy

I'm a little tin soldier
that wants to jump into your fire
you are a look in your eye
a dream passing by in the sky
I don't understand
all I need is treat me like a man
'cause I ain't no child
take me like I am
I got to know that I belong to you
do anything that you want to do
sing any so song that you want me to sing to you
I don't need no aggravation
I just got to make you

Sweet thing, I watch you
Burn so fast it scares me
My game, please don't leave me
Come so far, don't lose me
It matters where you are
As the sun hits, she'll be waiting
With the coffins, under heaven
Hey hey lover, you're still burning
You're his song yeah (BV: hey hey)
Sweet thing, I watch you
Burn so fast it scares me
My game, don't lose me
Come so far don't lose me

I'm happy just to be with you

And loving you the way I do

It's everything I need to know

Just resting in the afterglow of your...

Love,love is all around me

Everywhere

Love has come to touch my soul

With someone who really cares

No one can deny us

People who once passed me by

Will turn their heads 'round

I'm happy just to be with you

And loving you the way I do, yeah

Picked her up on a Friday night

Sha la la la lee, yeah

I knew everything gonna be alright

Sha la la la lee, yeh

Sha la la la lee

I asked her 'where do you wanna go?'

Sha la la la lee, yeh

Well we went someplace, I don't know

Sha la la la lee, yeh

Sha la la la lee

I held her close and I asked her if she was gonna be my baby

It felt so good when she answered me
