THE WATERBOYS - AND A BANG ON THE EAR lyrics

rate me

Lindsay was my first love she was in my class

I would have loved to take her out but I was too shy to ask

The fullness of my feeling was never made clear

but I send her my love with a bang on the ear

Nora was my girl when I first was in a group

I can still see her to this day, stirring chicken soup

Now she's living in Australia working for an auctioneer

but I send her my love with a bang on the ear

Deborah broke my heart and I the willing fool

I fell for her one summer on the road to Liverpool

I thought it was forever but it was over in a year (oh dear)

but I give her my love with a bang on the ear

The home I made with Bella became a house of pain

we weathered it together bound by a ball and chain

Is started up in Fife, and ended up in tears (oh dear)

but I send her my love with a bang on the ear

Krista was a rover from Canada she hailed

we crossed swords in San Francisco we both lived to tell the tale

I dont know now where she is oh but if I had her here

I'd give her my love with a bang on the ear

So my woman of the hearthfire, harbour of my soul

I watch you lightly sleeping and sense the dream that does unfold (like gold)

You to me are treasure, you to me are dear

so I'll give you my love with a bang on the ear
