Sing Around It

Coming to me on this wind and rain beach
And I starts to singing your name.
And the feeling I've got is that pure white spot
That's above all this pleasure and pain.

Singing Amen, singing Bethlehem,
Singing sun and rain.
Singing your lover, singing your brother,
Singing together again.

Sing around it; now you've found it,
Overcrowded, back to your love again.
People doubt it; still they rouse it,
Kissing their baby and getting insane.

And far off in this howling English channel
I hear Ewan MacColl shantying away
For his lover; she's an autumn fire
And he praises her like it was Sunday.

Sing around it; time to hound it,
Overcrowded, back to your love again.
People doubt it; still they rouse it,
Kissing their baby and getting insane.

Instantly walking the light.
Instantly giving the sign.
Instantly putting to rhyme.
Instantly reform the crime.

Instantly bought back to life,
Loving your trouble and strife.
Instantly loving again.
Instantly together again.

And baby you pull me; now I'm shattered into pieces
And every piece glows for love.
And I offer up everything: dreams, songs, a spatula!
Only this can save me; only this can be me.

Sing around it; time to hound it.
Sing along: if you don't know the words, hum.
Singing, "Praise be! Now you've found me!"
Singing, now that I don't have to run.

(I know "bought back to life" looks like a typo but this is one of my favorite songs and I memorized the lyrics from the author's website before the band went their separate ways. If you listen closely, he does in fact say he was "bought" back to life, not brought. Also, Ewan MacColl was a famous UK folk singer/songwriter. Nizlopi was a UK group. It's a clear reference if you know Ewan, but it definitely sounds like something else if you're unfamiliar. I can assure you that to the absolute best of my knowledge, THESE are the completely correct lyrics. And if you publish them you will be the ONLY site to have them correct. I think every other site just copies and pastes yours, anyway, ha ha. I just got fed up never seeing the proper lyrics ANYWHERE online anymore, when just a few years ago they were right there on Nizlopi's site.)
