Sunshine In The Moonlight

Born in late September
before white rivers slow to ice    
each autumn I remember            
that golden-brown sweet sacrifice 

Wild colours tumble through me
lost summers fading in my eyes -     
my heart gives way to winter
no matter how that pale sun shines

But you - you are always in my life
Thank You - thanks for making somethin’ right   

My sunshine in the moonlight             
you're always in my life -
My sunshine in the moonlight             
thanks for making somethin’ right
fill my days with rays of summer
stay with me each falling night        
don’t leave me here without you
you're always in my life

We’ll always change together
the only thing I know stays true - 
no matter what the season
one smile will always see me through

My sunshine in the moonlight             
you're always in my life -
My sunshine in the moonlight             
thanks for making somethin’ right
fill my days with rays of summer
stay with me each falling night        
don’t leave me here without you
you're always in my life

Yeh you - you are always in my life
Thank You - thanks for making somethin’ right 

My sunshine in the moonlight             
you're always in my life -
My sunshine in the moonlight             
thanks for making somethin’ right
fill my days with rays of summer
stay with me each falling night        
don’t leave me here without you
you're always in my life

Yeh you - you are always in my life
Thank You - thanks for making somethin’ right

Ten Good Summers

One eye on the clock - one in the mirror, how many summers have I got left?

Ten Good Summers
Lyrics by Mick Evans

One eye on the clock - one in the mirror
how many summers have I got left?
this skin is wearing thin
gotta reach my dreams before I rest

I’ll fly away - when my time is done        

Give me ten good summers
wanna dance in the setting sun
till my last breath is gone
till my last tale is spun - 
Give me ten good summers
I won’t stop till this race is run
before I move on - before I move on
just give me ten good summers - in the sun

Last rays of the day - first light tomorrow
this fire keeps burning inside so strong
takes me back - sun on my face            
the air tastes sweeter as days roll on 

I’ll fly away - when my time is done

Give me ten good summers
wanna dance in the setting sun
till my last breath is gone
till my last tale is spun - 
Give me ten good summers
I won’t stop till this race is run
before I move on - before I move on
just give me ten good summers - in the sun

Hey partner - have you seen the time?
got a rendez-vous
with some old friends of mine -  
gotta sing ‘I love you’ one more time - 
hey - have you seen the time?

Give me ten good summers
wanna dance in the setting sun
till my last breath is gone
till my last tale is spun - 
Give me ten good summers
I won’t stop till this race is run
before I move on - before I move on
just give me ten good summers - in the sun

Virginia Sinner

Virginia Sinner - a nocturnal nympho with a passion for freshly-whipped cream…possibly a cat, but I doubt it.

Virginia Sinner         
Lyrics by Mick Evans

Virginia Sinner - you’re out having fun            
digging in the dirt - licking up crumbs       
you’re an alley cat - with an angel’s tongue           
purring for the night to come

Virginia Sinner - you hunt by the moon
cat-and-mouse lovers - left licking their wounds
flashing green eyes - fixed on helpless fools
now the dawn can’t come too soon

Sweet dreams sweet Virginia
sleepin’ in the morning sun

Virginia Sinner
Queen of the neighbourhood
Virginia Sinner
you’re bad - but you’re oh so good
no airs and graces
no stuck-on faces
Virginia Sinner    
like only a wild cat could

Virginia Sinner - wake up feelin’ strong
sun’s dippin’ - on a brave new dawn     
burnin’ love - you’ve been asleep too long -    
purring for the night to come        

Sweet dreams sweet Virginia
stretching in the evening sun

Virginia Sinner
Queen of the neighbourhood
Virginia Sinner
you’re bad - but you’re oh so good
no airs and graces
no stuck-on faces
Virginia Sinner    
like only a wild cat could
