John Spillane - Prince's Street lyrics

rate me

I spent Monday on Strawberry Hill

Till I fell and I landed on your window-sill

I hung there by a golden fine web

I had woven from a hair of your head

I spent Tuesday just walking through town

Till I saw a gold angel come tumbling down

And waltzing with seagulls up in an elm tree

Where the wind runs her fingers above the dark Lee

And O will you meet me on Saturday night

We'll dance in the shadows between the streetlights

Between these two rivers I know where we'll meet

On Prince's Street

I spent Wednesday doing nothing at all

Till late in the evening the wind came to call

And stood at my window and danced a handstand

The sun on her shoulder and birds in her hands

The next morning I woke from a dream

Of where the fish lie on their beds of deep green

I watched Thursday morning put on it's new coat

Of cloud at the elbow, blue sky at the throat

And O will you meet me on Saturday night

We'll dance in the shadows between the streetlights

Between these two rivers I know where we'll meet

On Prince's Street

I spent Friday just counting the time

Till up in a tower I heard some bells chime

I saw a great goldfish take wing like a swan

And told me that Saturday wouldn't be long

And O will you meet me on Saturday night

We'll dance in the shadows between the streetlights

Between these two rivers I know where we'll meet

On Prince's Street

And O will you meet me on Saturday night

We'll dance with your ankles all bathed in moonlight

Between these two rivers I know where we'll meet

On Prince's Street<br />
