Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel - Best Years Of Our Lives lyrics
Your rating:
European maids, hard to ignore You, me and the boys, barred from the shore Fresh-faced imbeciles, laughing at me I’ve been laughing myself, is that so hard to see? Do I have to spell each letter out, honestly! If there’s no room for laughter there’s no room for me For me Try looking at you, rather than me No truth is in here, it’s all fantasy Since the last time we met I’ve been through About seven hundred changes and that’s just a few And the changes all tend to be something to do But you’ve got to believe that they’re all done for you For you Oooh you’ll think it’s tragic when that moment first arrives Ah, but it’s magic, it’s the best years of our lives Lost now for the words to tell you the truth Please banter with me the banter of youth If I knew how to say it I’d say it for you If I knew how to whisper I’d whisper,for you If I knew how to waltz I’d get up and dance for you If t thought I could run I’d come running to you To you I’ve discovered now how to be fair And this, I could teach you if only I dare The only conclusion 1’ve reached in my life Is that if I should die I should die-by the knife Since it’s only a matter of courage all right, Die a man or a martyr, the two would be nice, So nice Oooh you’ll think it’s tragic when that moment arrives Oh, oh but it’s magic, it’s the best years of our lives Oooh you’ll think it’s tragic when that moment first arrives Oh, oh, but it’s magic, it’s the best years of our lives
