The Best Years Of Our Lives/Sweet Dreams

The Best Years Of Our Lives (Live) - Steve Harley And Cockney Rebel

European Maids hard to ignore

You me and the boys barred from the shore

Fresh-faced imbeciles laughing at me

I've been laughing myself is that so hard to see

Do I have to spell each letter out honestly

If there's no room for laughter

There's no room for me for me for me

So try looking at you rather than me

Cause no truth is in here it's all fantasy

Since the last time we met I've been through

About seven hundred changes and that's just a few

And the changes all tend to be something to do

But you've to believe that they're all done for you

For you for you

You'll think it's tragic when that moment arrives

Ah but it's magic it's the best years of our lives

Lost now for the words to tell you the truth

So please banter with me the banter of youth

If I thought i could say it I'd say it for you

If I thought i could waltz I'd get up and dance for you

If I thought I could whisper I'd spir for you

If i thought i could run

I come running to you

To you to you

I've discovered now how to be fair

And this I could teach you if only I dare

The only conclusion I've reached in my life

Is that if I should die I should die by the knife

Since it's only a matter of courage all right

Die a man or a martyr the two would be nice

So nice so nice

You think it's tragic

When that moment cause to arrives

But it's magic

It's the best use of our lives
