Lyrics: Joe Harper

when ya thought I was a stranger
when you looked upon me
when I came back
but to take you from disaster
I cannot master the four winds in your shack

In the roamin´, in the gloamin´
you have brought and set before me
and I think that it's an omen
I'm just not what so many people see

[Chorus:]
And you shined your glory all around
Do not disguise what we did
I asked you for half a pound and you said
'Go see Joe Harper saturday morning, kid'
'Go see Joe Harper saturday morning, kid'

And the child held a ball
in the garden with the old queen
and ya kissed her lips and heart
another stranger, ya know what I mean

and ya walked the streets so lonely
in your own childish way
and ya thought that ya would only, ha
do it for today

[Chorus]

and just stood outside the club
and the rain came down on his head
and he got all soakin' wet
he said 'go for yourself'
and I said 'I know'
'Show Joe I ain't conquered yet'

And I walked away from the backstreets in the rain
and I saw how many times I had died
then we turned on outside the bus shelter
and i jumped on and said 'good bye'

And I shined my glory all around
did not disguise what I did
Tried to keep it underground
but they said
'Go see Joe Harper saturday morning, kid'
'Go see Joe Harper saturday morning, kid'
