A Song For Chris Farlowe


I’ll write you one more love song baby
‘Cos I’m leaving early in the morning
Taking memories on the empty train
I gave you many an early warning

We were always one too many tears
Holding hot hands far too tight
Friends forever in a love embrace
Loving armfuls in the night

Farewell to you my sweetheart lady
I wont let your teardrops bring me back
To fold slowly in your loving arms
I sail that ship of heart attack

We were always one too many tears
Holding hot hands far too tight
Friends forever in a love embrace
Loving armfuls in the night

We had it all I know we really did
We where the glow in wishful eyes
The soul of something going on
Anchored deep in tearful ties.

We were always one too many tears
Holding hot hands far too tight
Friends forever in a love embrace
Loving armfuls in the night

Dear Chris, Sending our love to a truly great voice
After listening to that great album of soul - 'Out Of Time' - on Spotify
