Teenage Fanclub - When I Still Have Thee lyrics

rate me

From the western isles to the tasman sea

There's a world of men and machinery

But the birds still sing and the sun shines free

No, I don't need much when I still have thee

Well, the rolling stones wrote a song for me

It's a minor song in a major key

But the stars still shine, the museums free

No, I don't need much when I still have thee

It's a modern hymn for the you and me

For the go between and the red army

Long as I still breathe and the air's still free

No, I don't need much when I still have thee

But the birds still sing and the sun shines free

No, I don't need much when I still have thee

For the rolling stones and the red army

No, I don't need much when I still have thee
