And A Bang On The Ear Lyrics

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

and 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

and 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 within the year (oh dear)

But I send her my love

and 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

It started up in Fife

It ended up in tears

But I send her my love

and 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 don't know now where she is

Oh, but if I had her here

I'd give her my love

and a bang on the ear

So my woman of the hearth fire

harbour of my soul

I watch you lightly sleeping

I 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

and a bang on the ear
