As soon as we get a fighting chance we could lose ourselves amongst the crowd my love
And you must know that Im up for trying, forgetting all this civilising row
And all these country miles are nothing, compared to taking a chance
And all these country miles are nothing, lady cant you read between the lines?
Because I found love and a thousand answers to the trapped little ghosts of a thousand glasses
Ive been drinking less and sleep comes to me, if this is life touch wood its easy
And you look so cosmopolitan like this is France or this is London town
Well let them go and pierce their features, well just stay and comb the beaches around
And how you sang bold reynardine as the snow it glazed outside and around
And was is wrong to pray for more, if it kept you safe ashore in my arms?
And how we ended so close together, with all that space around the fire my love
And just for you this one little line, I loved being taken under your arm my love
We could fairly watch the fur fly, we could play at cat and mouse
Im sure weve got Sweet Jesus on our side
As I believe in fate and youre a sucker for the stars
Im sure weve got Sweet Jesus on our side, singing Sweet Sweet Jesus when will she be mine?
