25 Apr 05 - 12:01 AM (#1469839) Subject: Lyr Add: AS SOON AS I CAN (Johnny McEvoy) From: Jim Dixon AS SOON AS I CAN John McEvoy I've walked the soles off my feet on these dark London streets In search for a room and a bed, And my heart grows so weary, with these nights cold and dreary, All I want is to lay down my head. CHORUS: I can see by your face that you're leaving this place, And you're taking the overnight train. If you should meet my mother, will you tell her I love her And I'll write just as soon as I can? Six months in this city, God knows there's no pity When you haven't a bob of your own, And there's no need for locks on this old cardboard box Even though it's a place I call home. CHORUS Outside Paddington Station, my heart it is breaking, And I can't tell my tears from the rain, And the jingle and jangle of the damned old triangle Keeps ringing around in my brain. CHORUS [Sung by Johnny McEvoy on his album "Celebration," and by Kevin Collins on his album "Hills of Home."] |
