IAN HUNTER - China lyrics

rate me

(ian hunter)

(transcribed by colin ford

Chinachinathe evening's moving in

See yousoon nowthe boat moves with the wind

ChinachinaI can see the harbour lights

Light yourfirewe'll be warm tonight

Chinachinathe thoughts drift from the sea

I'm dreamingof youwear your dress for me

Chinachinathe oceans on the wheel(? )

The seagulls flying lower now

China I can feel you by my side

Across the bayacross the tyne

Can you hear me say

Chinachinawear your hair down low

Ladyladyyou're frozen to the bone

Chinachinathe catch was good today

The oilskins clinging to my back

And the lantern gently sways

Oh don't you crythe kids to bed

Didn't mean the things I said

Chinachinathe years go rolling by

LaughtersorrowI will not make you cry

Chinachinathink before you speak

Always remember the ocean hauls as deep

And if I'm tired of feeling low

Don't let me sleepyou know

Chinachinathe men are on the quay

Drinkingsmokingtalking quietly

The water's calmer now

All my work is done

So chinasee ya.
