tears of a lady - pete gold lyrics

Loading...

england
you lost a friend and gained a saint
who met her fate without complaint
her arms were open wide
and the nation swirled with pride
her heart as big as a london bus

wales
she was your princess, fair and square
but all the world wanted a share
the lies they tried to tell
the books they tried to sell
put flecks of gray in golden hair
but the timid smile could not disguise
the fluid welling in her eyes

like a thousand drops of english summer rain
making smearing patterns on my window pane
your cooling presence kept us sane
i wish i could bathe in you
may the tears of a lady wash us clean again

like the mighty river thames rolls to the sea
full of ships and boats and maritime degree
you cut a course through history
i wish i could float on you
may the tears of a lady bear my lord for me

like the nation’s lifeblood racing through its veins (like the nation’s blood)
bringing oxygen to muscle, spleens, and brains (muscle, spleens and brains)
now all that we have left are stains (all we have left are stains)
we’ll never get rid of them
and the tears of a lady trickle down our drains
