"Heart Of Oak" lyrics
"Heart Of Oak"
You're precious to me, like Owen's poetry
And I wish you well, my Heart of Oak
When you sang Bay of Biscay
The whole world it drifted away
And the wind it sighed
Through the hearts of oak
I'll always be beside my Heart of Oak
My Heart of Oak
You're precious to me, like Blake's poetry
And I wish you well, bold hearted Oak
With your arms raised open wide
Singing to the skies
What a mighty soul, with a heart of oak
Can't be bought or sold, not the heart of oak
My Heart of Oak, my Heart of Oak
You're the keeper of the flame
In a time where so much is at stake
And I wish you well, pure hearted oak
Can’t be bought or sold, not the heart of oak
And from little acorns grow the mighty oaks
My Heart of Oak, my Heart of Oak, my Heart of Oak
And from little acorns grow the mighty oaks
My Heart of Oak.

Badly Drawn Boy - "Once Around The Block" You quiver like a candle on fire
I'm putting you out
Maybe tonight we could be the last shout
But I'm fascinated by your style
Your beauty will last for a while
You're feeling instead of being...
Johnny Marr - "New Town Velocity" Left home a mystery, leave school for poetry
I say goodbye to them and me, mission velocity
It made me just run faster now, I'm gonna take it off driving round
Make up my mind, leave the windows...
The Libertines - "Gunga Din" Woke up again to my chagrin
Getting sick and tired of feeling sick and tired again
I tried to write, because I got the right
To make it look as if I'm doing something with my life
Got to find a vein,...
