Lyrics
LOVER'S LAMENT
(Linda Piro/Steve Wright)
Verse I:
Sing a song of a boy and a girl so in love
He was 4, she wsa 3, people said it couldn't be.
"You\re too young, unaware of the wonders of love
You'll grow up, change your minds
Find somebody else, you'll see."
Bridge:
They went their separate ways seeking truth and wisdom
Searching for the magic of promised happiness
Los inside the world, torn from one another
Never more to love ne'er more be blessed.
Verse II:
Sing a song of a boy and a girl so in love
He was Jew, she was Christian, they said it couldn\t be
They said, "God won't abide, don't upset heaven's plan,
You'll grow up change your minds
Find somdbody else, you'll see."
(Bridge)
Release:
When you find true love, never let it go.
Verse III:
Sing a song of a boy and a girl so in love
He was black, she was white
People said it couldn't be
"Different skins cannot mix," was the cry of hypocrites,
"You'll grow up, change your minds,
Find somebody else, you'll see."
Bridge
La la's out.
