Life And Life Only - Al Stewart[00:00:00]

Mr Willoughby [00:00:25]

Whose only luxury is the sugar in his tea[00:00:26]

Teaches history at High Worthington School[00:00:29]

His clothing has remained unnoticeably plain[00:00:37]

His common room technique suitably restrained [00:00:40]

Though maybe too cool[00:00:44]

Work done in the summery sun see the cricket ball fly[00:00:49]

Intently like a strange demented bird towards the sun[00:00:53]

Considering its flight he pauses for a while[00:01:01]

Ah but Mr Willoughby we've never seen you smile[00:01:03]

Tell me how come [00:01:09]

Ah but sometimes it must get lonely[00:01:13]

Ah but it's life and life only[00:01:25]

"Maurice " said Renee [00:01:43]

"Why didn't you say that you'd be so late[00:01:45]

The supper that I made is ruined again [00:01:47]

Is there anything you'd like " [00:01:55]

"No nothing" he replied[00:01:56]

Standing by the stairs not looking in her eyes [00:01:58]

So stupidly male[00:02:01]

All dark and lying in bed [00:02:08]

"You've been with her again" She blurts out [00:02:10]

Then turning on her side begins to cry[00:02:13]

At first he doesn't stir but then mumbling his words[00:02:19]

He reaches for her hand she shivers [00:02:22]

But doesn't take it away[00:02:24]

Ah for sometimes it does get lonely[00:02:32]

Ah but it's life and life only[00:02:44]

Oh Smithy Smithers-Bell; clerk from Clerkenwell[00:03:01]

On the beach at Bournemouth thinks he very well[00:03:05]

May be next year in France[00:03:08]

Inspired for a while [00:03:14]

He decides to risk a smile at Mr Willoughby[00:03:15]

Who passes polishing his glasses [00:03:18]

Studiously averting his glance[00:03:21]

Renee several deckchairs away [00:03:26]

Wonders if they would be better[00:03:29]

While Maurice is with the kids out in the sea[00:03:32]

And I was feeling small sitting on the wall[00:03:38]

Looking at them all and wondering who will I be [00:03:40]

Ah but sometimes it does get lonely[00:03:50]

Ah but it's life and life only[00:04:01]

Ah but it's life and life only[00:04:18]

Ah but it's life and life only[00:04:25]

Ah but it's life and life[00:04:31]
