Lyrics

When they said that you were beautiful
 I said it there and then
 I laid aside all resistance
 Forgot to say amen
 And when you raised your hands to me
 A glow therein I saw
 A baby of the morning
 Was sleeping
 Nature's law
 And it begins to seem like summer's almost gone
 Like the wind that blow the leaves out on the lawn
 I determined that I loved you
 You determined I am he
 Determined both together
 We meet our company
 And the feathers of the wild dove
 Floating to the ground
 Gliding through the branches
 Spinning slowly round
 As we wait in the mountains for the song
 That revives what's been between us all along
 In Cannes there was absurdity
 In Nice there was the shore
 In Monaco there were casinos
 In Asia there was war
 And the pipers were American
 The peaches fresh with cream
 People with vibrations
 Just wild robots by some stream
 And now we grasp imaginary straws
 And shuffle through the sea with bright new claws
 If what we know can save us
 Then it's time to make the try
 Every time they try to make us
 Servants of some lie
 The children born of bodies
 In bold with pattern scheme
 It's a funny, funny world you live in
 ‘Til you learn that it's a dream
 Sea serpents are rockage made of clay
 Explaining how we were yesterday
 Still I said that you were beautiful
 I said it there and then
 I laid aside resistance
 Forgot to say amen
 And when you raised your hands to me
 A glow therein I see
 The childhood of that beauty
 Which belongs to you and me
 And I realise that summer is never gone
 Like the wind that blow the leaves out on the lawn
 Out on the lawn
 Out on the lawn
 On the lawn
