tweenies - on the southbank of london, far away lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1: bella]
going round the river thames, wave the isis
in the distance loom the woodlands clear and cool
oftentimes my thoughts revert to scenes of childhood
where i first received my lessons, nature’s school
but one thing there is missing from the picture
without her face it seems so incomplete
i long to see my mother in the doorway
as she stood there years ago, her boy to greet

[chorus: tweenies (x2)]
oh, the moonlight’s fair tonight along the river
from the fields there comes the breath of newmown hay
through the sycamores the candle lights are gleaming
on the southbank of london, far away

[verse 2: fizz]
many years have passed since i strolled by the river
arm in arm, with sweetheart mary by my side
it was there i tried to tell her that i loved her
it was there i begged of her to be my bride
long years have passed since i strolled thro’ the churchyard
she’s sleeping there, my angel, mary dear
i loved her, but she thought i didn’t mean it
still i’d give my future were she only here

[chorus: tweenies (x2)]
oh, the moonlight’s fair tonight along the river
from the fields there comes the breath of newmown hay
through the sycamores the candle lights are gleaming
on the southbank of london, far away
