The Golden Afternoon - Martin Newell

Get me a taxi soon

Or the train times back

To the golden afternoon

And I'll meet you on the green

Like we used to do

When we were seventeen

And though you say we change

We don't really

Not deep down inside

We don't really

And the way I see

You're the same to me

Say you'll never die

I won't let you die

So put your mascara on

And the dress you wore

For the golden afternoon

Then I'll walk you along the lane

While the year revolves

And the sun dissolves our pain

And they don't make them now

Like they used to

Not when we were young

They refuse to

Children of the sun

Brilliant every one

Love can never die

I won't let it die

And they don't make them now

Like they used to

Not when we were young

They refuse to

Children of the sun

Brilliant every one

Love can never die

I won't let it die

Get me a taxi soon
