When I first escaped the city of York
|
And leapt out of this cage
|
No silicon chip could sublimate
|
Or tame this temptuous rage
|
|
When my heart was in the attic
|
Like the picture of Dorian Gray
|
I was rescued by the enemy
|
That dare not speak it's name
|
|
Say hello to your future
|
I'm just pleased to meet you
|
You were a million miles away
|
Say hello to your lion's heart
|
Queen Victoria's England
|
Will never ever be the same
|
Giddyup!
|
|
When I left the warm surroundings
|
Of my selfish difficult stage
|
When our eyes first met there was deja-vu
|
And a feeling I could not shake
|
|
Then gravity seduced me
|
And drew me to this place
|
I could swear we were together
|
In an entirely different age
|
|
Say hello to your future
|
I'm just pleased to meet you
|
You were a million miles away
|
Say hello to your lion's heart
|
Queen Victoria's England
|
Will never ever be the same
|
|
So wonderfully good looking
|
With fine and delicate lines
|
If I place this face in carbon freeze
|
It will never be affected by time
|
|
She said "Don't confuse your beauty
|
With the insolence of youth.
|
You can move through time in one direction.
|
Sad but it's the truth"
|
|
But it took so long to meet you
|
But it took so long to meet you
|
It took so long to meet you
|
|
It's time to go
|
It's time to leave
|
You should never have come
|
|
Get back to the craft
|
Get back to your age
|
Take somebody with you
|
Giddyup!
|
|
Say hello to your future
|
I'm just pleased to meet you
|
You were a million miles away
|
Say hello to your lion's heart
|
Queen Victoria's England
|
Will never ever be the same
