And a Bang on the Ear (Extended)

And A Bang On The Ear (Extended) - The Waterboys (水孩子)

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 with 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 with 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 in a year (oh dear)

But I give her my love with 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

Is started up in Fife

And ended up in tears

But I send her my love with 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 with a bang on the ear

So my woman of the hearthfire harbour of my soul

I watch you lightly sleeping and 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 with a bang on the ear
