I can only remember a little bit that went:- "If we catch a 100 sugarfish... and if we eat them our dream will come true" or something like that, i didn't get chance to ask him about it and i probably won't see him again. thanks Gilly |

14 Feb 08 - 04:30 AM (#2262038) Subject: Lyr Add: FAIRYTALE LULLABY (John Martyn) From: Jim Dixon I think it should be formatted like this: FAIRYTALE LULLABY John Martyn 1. If you want to ride a rainbow, come with me And I will take you to the magic purple sea And maybe we will find a thousand sugar fish. When you eat them they will grant your every wish. CHORUS: And if you want your friends to come, Then bring them all along. 2. If you want to catch a star then walk my way. I will take you where the night is always day. You can follow me if you really try. Maybe we will find a rainbow to teach it to fly. 3. I will take you through the magic dancing wood And I will take you where the goblins are all good. I will take you where the elves and pixies do sing And I will take you round the magic fairy ring. 4. Bow your head and let your eyelids close on down. Where we're going you won't need to bring your frown. You will find that all the things that I have said Will come true when you are lying in your bed.
