Suite In C
The sun shone 'til Turnham Green
I walked into a dream
What happened to that face I'd seen
Soft pussy on her knee

She smiled at me and then
With the sun away she went
I knew I had to see her again
That girl on the DL train

I sped my way upstream
She played my tambourine
Seven marches (*Severn Mansions) I wrote the theme
Placed an ad in a magazine

We walked to the Serpentine
Shared the Sunday evergreen
She was my ballerine
A woman of seventeen

You want someone to make your life happy
Well here I am, here I am
You are the one to make my life happy
And here you are in my head
Ah

The sun shone 'til Turnham Green
I walked into a dream
Now I know what happened to that face I'd seen
Soft pussy on her knee
Ow!

One sugar is all I need
You're my sugar and my cup of tea
You gave all your love to me
Now the sunshine is all we see

You and me and we don't mind the weather, babe
'Cos you and me are sitting in a rainbow
We'll be going on and on and on and on and on forever
Shine on, babe

Come along with me
We can have some tea
Brewed by me for thee, my love
Come inside, and you will see
Come inside, and you will see

Flight Of Ibis 
Look into your eyes
Your eyes look away
Want to reach you now
But there's nothing I can say
I'm trying hard to see you
Words can't say what I want to

Love, love is one
Love we've begun
Love, let it come

You are but a child
Of the stars and the sky
We are just the young
Of a wind flying high
Trees bending in a windstorm
Through struggle we are reborn

Love, love is one
Love we've begun
Love, let it come

Look into your eyes
Let your eyes look at me
We have been as one
And as one we can be
Sad moments soon are nothing
Love is all, all is loving

Is She Waiting?
Is she waiting
Is the ashtray by the bed
Beside her
Is she waiting
With the book that's never read

I need to know she knows
I'm on my way home
Curtains closed
I'm back on the road

Is she lonely
Painting pictures of the sea
To show me
In the morning
She'll be there and I will be

Beside her is the place
I know I should be
See her face
Shine smiling at me

Is she sleeping
Half awake to hear the door
At sunrise
Is she waiting
Just to be with me once more
I know she is

Tomorrow's People-The Children Of Tomorrow
Who's gonna climb the fence
And smell the flowers there
It'll take more than time
To give us fifty lives

If everyone wants to go
It won't take very long
But how many use their eyes or hearts
To really know

How many will there be
I hope it's everyone
To feel the earth and the sun
And swim in silent seas

And who will open their eyes
To see what they can see
And then while looking around
Feel the worth of reality

Tomorrow's people are playing now
And tomorrow's people could have the world

Who will show us the way
Or is it happening
For those who want the sun
To shine on everyone

Even now the wall is old
And falling down
So love and live for the time is coming
For you and all

Tomorrow's people are playing now
And tomorrow's people could have the world

Who's gonna climb the fence
And smell the flowers there
It'll take more than time
To give us fifty lives

If everyone wants to go
It won't take very long
But how many use their eyes or hearts
To really know

Who will show us the way
Or is it happening
For those who want the sun
To shine on everyone

Even now the wall is old
And falling down
So love and live for the time is coming
For you and all

Tomorrow's people are playing now
And tomorrow's people could have the world

Tomorrow's people will have the world
Tomorrow's people will have the world
Tomorrow's people will have the world
Tomorrow's people

Birdman
Long ago in Walthamstow
A man he dreamed a singular scheme
Had no wish to join the fish
But he'd sigh "I'd love to fly"

Sat in bed and scratched his head
So absurd to fly like a bird
Time blew past until at last
Late one night he saw the light

Careful hands drew up the plans
Shapes and things like curious wings
Hieroglyphics most prolific
Numbered charts with all of the parts
Now the work starts

Toiled for days on struts and stays
Umpteen screws and numerous glues
Harness leathers and rainbow feathers
Hinges and joints at relevant points

'Til in the golden dawnbeam sun
He saw that all the work was done
With face aglow ran up the road
To Wishbone Hill, then pausing still
Cast his eyes on distant skies
And slowly moved his arms

Slowly up, then slowly down
Faster up, then faster down
Faster up, then faster down
'Til at last with a swishing sound
He very gently left the ground
('Til at last with a swishing sound
He very gently left the ground)
'Til at last he left the ground

Weary from his journey
Birdman circled homewards
Gliding through the sunset
He very gently floated down
Down to the ground
