It was an April morning
When they told us we should go
And as I turned to you
You smiled at me
How could they say no?

All the fun to have
To live the dreams we always had
Oh the songs to sing
When we at last return again, yeah

Sending off a glancing kiss
To those who claim they know
Know the streets a seaman he's
The devil in his hole

Oh to sail away
Sailing lands and other days
Oh to touch the dream
Hides inside and never seen, yeah

Into the sun the south the north
Lies the first of hope
Shackles of commitments fell
In pieces on the ground

To tread the air above the din
Oh to laugh aloud
Dancing as we fought the crowd, yeah

To seek the man whose pointing hand
The giant step unfolds
With guidance from the curving path
That churns up into stone

If one bell should ring
In celebration for a king
So fast the heart should beat
As proud the head with heavy feet, yeah

iii. "The Song Remains The Same"
- Jimmy Page and Robert Plant
(Led Zeppelin - from the album "Houses Of The Holy")

Oh, yeah
Here we go
Wanted to know, oh

Sing out Hare, Hare, oh
Dance the Hoochie Koo
The city lights oh so bright,
As we go sliding, sliding, sliding, sliding through.
