SONYA AND AMY IN GREY

(Thom Moore)

The stars are gorgeous away from town
- A sailor looks up when his heart is down -
Thinking of children, and they're so far away
Thinking of Sonya and Amy in grey

No stars come out when the weather's all stormy
Clouds and wind - just memories warm you
That's what I did in the storm today:
I remembered my Sonya and Amy in grey

In the middle of Russia, the bears in their dens
Move - very slowly - now and again
They dream about bear things, bear-baby pla,
They don't dream of Sonya or Amy in grey

Snow on the high way, snow on the wall,
Snow in a blanket covers us all;
I'm a bear for sleep when Russia's this way.
But I dream of Sonya and Amy in grey

Daddy's a sailor, he's out on the sea,
He's thinking sweet things about Amy and me,
While a dreamer in Russia sings while he may
This song about Sonya and Amy in grey.
That's what they do, come night or come day:
They muse about Sonya and Amy - in school grey

(Recorded by Thom Moore on 'Dreamer in Russia')
