lyrics

On an afternoon in May… a fear you couldn’t quite allay,
Should you post that letter by the door?
Why does it take so many words to state,
something people use their eyes to say,
With a smile and nothing more...

Words don’t come that easily but were there a job opportunity,
The moon and stars in unity, I’d be yours at the double.
Should head office have an opening,
For a motivated starter who’s angling,
For a chance to take you cycling,
I’d be yours, no trouble.

If there were a chance you see… to tell you what you mean to me
Well sometimes the words get lost at sea, mumbled or sung so quietly

So the form’s filled out in triplicate,
The font’s award-winning and the colour’s good,
My referee says you really should,
So I’d be yours at the double...
If the museum needs a new dinosaur,
In a notice pinned to the kitchen door,
In that position I’d yell for sure,
“I’d be yours!” at the double

If there were a chance you see… to tell you what you mean to me
Well sometimes the words get lost at sea, mumbled or sung so quietly

“I’d be yours!” at the double
“I’d be yours!” no trouble

about

Alexander's Festival Hall London, UK

Alexander's Festival Hall is a sort of English pop confection, a mix of regretful ballads and occasional pop rainbows. New album 'Not From Above!' is both music and book of stories. Twelve lush romantic songs and a collection of darkly comic thought experiments.
