Fairport Convention - Love at First Sight lyrics

rate me

(verse)

Put down as a loaner with a taste for things that feel

The roughness in her nature, the good can't be concealed

Affection for the phony kinds, longing for romance

She had the sense and hollow hand to join the Morris Band(?!)

Deep down damnation drove her, she had to find that magic

To dress herself in man's attire as long as it was white

Hid away her shape before hiding all the signs

Found a love in village homes to join the Morris side(?!)

(Chorus)

It was love at first, the dispersion in white

Come here, you heart breaker, she'll be mine!

(Verse 2)

They came for Mr. West within the village bounds

To find miss happy _____(?) very further round

She spoke a lot lower than she did the day before

A strange effect was on her as she danced across the floor

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)

Thinking to be Morris fool underneath the spares

She had to make her hands around, she would not kiss and tell

She felt a strange attraction for a way more turbulent

As he looked into her eyes, her secret was not kept

(Bridge)

Oh, take me to the village to see the dancers there

Ringing in the steps above, there's something in the air

So told me I look good, my looks have really turned my tide

Now we've connected so much on another Morris side

(Chorus)
