Reason for Living (Montgomery)
All on my own in the cool summers night
feeling my own watching the blue flashing lights
You're on a yacht, the season of summer is here
though it is hot, the reason for living is clear
Down on the docks where the pretty girls go
I lay on my own where the green grass grows
(and I know it)
Time of the year when the days are so long
reading the Times when the news is so wrong
Shall we dance, foxtrot maybe?
Thank you my dear
Down on the docks where the pretty girls go
I lay on my own where the green grass grows
(and I know it and)
It's all okay, summer will slowly pass
and winter will come but the grey days won't last
The season for living is here
The reason for living is here
The reason for living is here
The reason for living is here
That two step, I like that two step
such a fetching frock my darling
Constance my dear, can you bring the tennis racquets?
Salad on the lawn and gin and tonics all around
Thank you very much
Good night, good night.
