"Curtains" lyrics
"Curtains"
I used to know this old scarecrow
He was my song
My joy and sorrow
Cast alone between the furrows
Of a field no longer sown by anyone
I held a dandelion
That said the time had come
To leave upon the wind
Not to return
When summer burned the earth again
Oh
Oh
Cultivate the freshest flower
This garden ever grew
Beneath these branches
I once wrote such childish words for you
But that's okay
There's treasure children always seek to find
And just like us
You must have had
A once upon a time
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh)
Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh)
Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh)
Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh)
Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh)
Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh)
Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh)
Oh... (lovely, lovely, ay-oh, lovely, lovely, ay-oh)

The Beach Boys - "Feel Flows" Unfolding, enveloping missiles of soul
Recall senses sadly
Mirage like soft blue, like lanterns below
To light the way gladly
Whether whistling heaven's clouds disappear
Whether wind withers memory...
Harry Nilsson - "Jump Into The Fire" You can climb a mountain
You can swim the sea
You can jump into the fire
But you'll never be free
You can shake me up
Or I can break you down
Whoa-o-o-o-, whoa-o-o-o-
We can make each other happy...
Lindsey Buckingham - "Trouble" I really should be saying goodnight
I really shouldn't stay anymore
It's been so long since I held you
I've forgotten what love is for
I should run on the double
I think I'm in trouble
I think I'm...
Wings - "Let 'Em In" Someone knocking at the door
Somebody ringing the bell
Someone's knocking at the door
Somebody's ringing the bell
Do me a favour
Open the door
And let 'em in
Oh yeah
Someone's knocking at the door...
