The Year She Spent In England

The Year She Spent In England - Weddings Parties Anything[00:00:01]

At the tender age of eighteen[00:00:15]

She saw nothing in that town to hold her[00:00:17]

Nothing in the majesty of the green New England hills[00:00:21]

She worked for one year[00:00:26]

In the office of a stock and station agent[00:00:28]

And her nights behind the bar of the Great Britain Hotel[00:00:32]

The boys concerned with football[00:00:41]

And the girls concerned with bugger all[00:00:44]

She did not spare a thought for them [00:00:47]

Bid them all adieu[00:00:50]

Said I'm shooting through[00:00:54]

Alone alone alone alone[00:00:59]

She thought it might be worth the pain[00:01:02]

Alone alone alone alone[00:01:08]

She thought it would be different[00:01:11]

But it was just the same[00:01:15]

Was it a bigger brighter world in London [00:01:29]

Well it was bigger that was certain[00:01:32]

She wasn't sure who to contact so[00:01:35]

Her friendships they were few[00:01:38]

To a few friends that she left at home[00:01:41]

Her letters spoke of certain pleasure[00:01:44]

How she'd lived up to this point [00:01:48]

My God she hardly knew[00:01:51]

And the treasures found in Camden[00:01:55]

She just stored them all away for her[00:01:58]

Return back home in twelve months' time [00:02:02]

Give or take a day[00:02:05]

Like she'd ever been away[00:02:08]

Alone alone alone alone[00:02:13]

She thought it might be worth the pain[00:02:16]

Alone alone alone alone[00:02:23]

She thought it would be different[00:02:25]

But it was just the same[00:02:30]

Now to anyone who'll listen she'll[00:02:44]

Tell of her year in England[00:02:47]

Of the people of the places of[00:02:50]

The fine times she will tell[00:02:53]

She's certainly the best dancer of a Tuesday at the disco[00:02:56]

That they built out in the car[00:03:02]

Park of the Great Britain Hotel[00:03:05]

The boys concerned with football[00:03:10]

And the girls concerned with bugger all[00:03:13]

They think she dances funny[00:03:16]

Think she dresses like a fool[00:03:19]

And her best friend knows the truth of it[00:03:22]

The year she spent in England[00:03:25]

Was like swimming underwater[00:03:28]

Across the town's Olympic pool[00:03:31]

So cruel[00:03:36]

Alone alone alone alone[00:03:40]

She thought it might be worth the pain[00:03:43]

Alone alone alone alone[00:03:50]

She thought it would be different[00:03:53]

But it was just the same[00:03:57]

Alone alone alone alone[00:03:59]

She thought it might be worth the pain[00:04:02]

But it was just the same[00:04:06]

But it was just the same[00:04:10]

It was just the same[00:04:13]

It was just the same[00:04:16]
