1972

YOU HAD COFIDENCE & GRACE
WITH A SMILE ON YOUR FACE
THERE WAS NOTHIN’G, YOU COULDN’T DO
I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER YOU
IN NINETEEN AND SEVENTY-TWO

IN THE PASSAGE THAT YOU MADE
FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE
THERE WAS NOTHIN’ YOU COULDN’T DO
I CAN’T NO, NO I CAN NOT FORGET YOU
IN NINETEEN AND SEVENTY-TWO

WE HAD IT ALL
WE HAD OPINIONS FULL OF POWER
WE WERE LOVE’S CALL OF GLORY
IN OUR SUNDAY NIGHT MOVIE
AND EVERYTHING WAS OURS
AND EVERYONE LOVED US NOW EVERY DAY’S PASSING
BYE BYE BYE

FROM THE JUNGLE TO THE SEA
AND THE SWEET SMELL OF VICTORY
THERE WAS A TIME, IT BROKE FREE
IT HAPPENED, IT HAPPENED IN ’73
BUT THIS IS ME & YOU
IN NINETEEN AND SEVENTY-TWO

IN NINETEEN AND SEVENTY-TWO
