Mercia It was a day not to forget The sun shone golden apples through the wheatfields We wandered dappled lanes up to the house your brother said was haunted Someone once had been murdered there You gave me kiss I’ll never regret I’ll be loving you for all my time Be the one that walks beside you Mine is yours Yours is mine The next day in Wicksteed park Your sister-in-law showed us those abandoned thrill rides Your eyes could be your mind/Your eyes could read my mind The starlings gathered on the lawns for their leaving of the midlands These lands you were born and raised in I’ll be loving you for all my time Be the one that walks beside you Yours is mine I know you grew up in country I grew up in city But can we grow both together Drive up to the cliffs and watch the weather wild and innocent like Those days we were younger Laugh about the lives/lies we escaped Mine is yours If yours is mine So darling come and dance with me Gypsy dance with me
Time to leave behind the midlands
