We walked in the sun on a Saturday morning
You and the baby on Hambledon Hill
And the passing of time was your friend for the asking
And all you were asking was the passing of time

And the whole of my world stood so wonderfully still
And I knew I was tumbling head over heel
And all in the space of a Saturday morning
High on Hambledon Hill

All I remember was not really knowing
Where we were going on Hambledon Hill
The pain you had gone through, the dream you held onto
No longer mattered on Hambledon Hill

And the whole of my world stood so wonderfully still
And I knew I was tumbling head over heel
And all in the space of a Saturday morning
High on Hambledon Hill

It all hangs in my head
All of the heaven on Hambledon Hill
It all hangs in my head
All of the heaven on Hambledon Hill

And if you should need me one Saturday morning
I will be walking on Hambledon Hill
I'll turn every stone there for what I have known there
For it all lies buried on Hambledon Hill

And all the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put us together again
And all the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put us together again

And all in the space of a Saturday morning
High on Hambledon Hill

It all hangs in my head
All of the heaven on Hambledon Hill
It all hangs in my head
All of the heaven on Hambledon Hill
It all hangs in my head
All of the heaven on Hambledon Hill
It all hangs in my head
All of the heaven on Hambledon Hill

So I bought this store in  South Dakota
In a quiet neighbourhood
'Cos clutching straws and beating doors down
Hadn't done me any good
It's surplus stock I specialise in with  prices hard to beat
For your replacement the bargain basement is fully guaranteed

If that is what you want I can supply
Negotiate with you if the price is too high
If that's what you need, give me a call
I have to admit  I've been missing you all
There's fabulous futures in surplus supply
Things get left over and no one knows why
Enclosed is my Change of address
You'd better tell Sarah

My assistant is no stranger to the retail trade
She comes in part time, She's had a hard time
But knows the price she paid
An ex-Virginian, it's her opinion
When the price is low
People rarely treat you fairly
No matter where you go

If that is what you want I can supply
Negotiate with you if the price is too high
If that's what you need, give me a call
I have to admit  I've been missing you all
There's fabulous futures in surplus supply
Things get left over and no one knows why
Enclosed is my Change of address
You'd better tell Sarah

Old Guitars and new umbrellas
All at priced to clear
As luck will have it they're lost in transit
And often wind up here
And my apartment is fully furnished
It's on the second floor
And you can use it after hours
No matter what it's for

If that is what you want I can supply
Negotiate with you if the price is too high
If that's what you need, give me a call
I have to admit  I've been missing you all
There's fabulous futures in surplus supply
Things get left over and no one knows why
Enclosed is my Change of address
You'd better tell Sarah
Enclosed is my Change of address
Go tell Sarah, Go tell Sarah

One day i't gonna be alright
One day i't gonna be alright
One day i't gonna be alright
Alright, Alright

I Don't Remember It - (Gordon Haskell)

We talked of God and Ghandi
And the truth such as it is
And while I love Napoleon Brandy
I Don't remember it like this

And How we lost Tyrannosaurus
Maybe something that I missed
Whatever life has gone before us
I don't remember it like this

And whatever love is
It's in the thrill of you kiss
but I don't remember it like this

And the spirits of the past
May well be here
Whispering the spell they cast
That brought me out of the wilderness at last

I have seen the Seven Wonders
Mysteries I can't resist
And while I love the Wall of China
I don't remember it like this

And whatever love is
It's in the thrill of you kiss
but I don't remember it like this

I can share your love of nature
Appreciate all that it is
And while I love a Bed of Roses
I don't remember it like this

And whatever love is
It's in the thrill of you kiss
but I don't remember it like this

This is something new
This is something new
This is something new
This is something new
This is something new
This is something new
And I don't remember it like this

Today Is All We Got - Music and Lyrics by Gordon Haskell

There's a light that I have known
Anytime when I'm alone
Like a warm and trusty friend
Bringing me to you again
I've been learning such a lot
Today is all we got

It was all a case of why
We could never say goodbye
I don't need to take advice
The answer's in your eyes
And I very near forgot
Today is all we got

No need to promise anything
Why would I do that
When all I want is heaven
And heaven's where your at
heaven's where your at

Why let the days that lie ahead
Make you worry in your bed
Give all you've got to give
Learn to love and to live
And I very near forgot
Today is all we got

No need to promise anything
Why would I do that
When all I want is heaven
And heaven's where your at
heaven's where your at

Mumbo Jumbo - (Gordon Haskell)

Who are we if we aren't who we are?
What is this that makes so near so far?
Why is when a matter of time
But matter is a fact sublime
When fiction always seems to rhyme
And life becomes a pantomime
Words contradict like "Perfect crime"

It's all mumbo jumbo
It's all mumbo jumbo
It's all mumbo jumbo
It's all mumbo jumbo

Where is there that there's nowhere to go?
Who becomes a nobody I know?
Minds become a permanent state
But permanence is out of date
No time allowed to contemplate
The damage done, but is it fate?
Words contradict like "Love to hate"

It's all mumbo jumbo
It's all mumbo jumbo
It's all mumbo jumbo
It's all mumbo jumbo

How is it that that is how it was?
Long ago when why became because
We're torn between the strong and the kind
We're out of space, we're out of time
Our lefts and rights and bottom lines
Our happiness has made us blind
Words contradict like "Narrow mind"

It's all mumbo jumbo
It's all mumbo jumbo
It's all mumbo jumbo
It's all mumbo jumbo

It's all mumbo jumbo
It's all mumbo jumbo
It's all mumbo jumbo
It's all mumbo jumbo

All My Life - (Gordon Haskell)

It's the kind of stuff you read about
In some silly magazine
It's the kind of things you've thought about
In the wildest of your dreams
It's the kinda miracle that you need
And here you are 

All my life I've been waiting for you
All my life I've been waiting for you
Just to tell you, tell you of my love
Just to tell you, I've been waiting
All my life, All my life

It's the kinda movie I 've seen
That only makes me sad
'Cos I was watching someone else's dream
of love I've never had
I would leave the auditorium and hide my tears from view
Never thinking it was possible
That I'd find you

All my life I've been waiting for you
All my life I've been waiting for you
Just to tell you, tell you of my love
Just to tell you, I've been waiting
All my life, All my life

Dododododo etc. etc.
There's a butterfly in China
Caused a Hurricane to blow
And it's a million to one chance but here I go

All my life I've been waiting for you
All my life I've been waiting for you
Just to tell you, tell you of my love
Just to tell you, I've been waiting
All my life, All my life

Nothing In The World - Music and Lyrics by Gordon Haskell

There's a house where I was born
There's your photograph faded and torn
And I've held it from the day
When nothing in this world would make you stay

There's a school we used to go
Where the teacher still says hello
And the priest tells me to pray
But nothing in this world would make you stay

And I know I got a dead end job
And I tend to live it day to day
And I understood your letter
How you wanted something better
But I wish we could have found another way

This little town's where I belong
Still I wonder how you're getting on
No deeper love will ever come your way
But nothing in this world would make you stay

And I know I got a dead end job
And I tend to live it day to day
And I understood your letter
How you wanted something better
But I wish we could have found another way

This little town's where I belong
Still I wonder how you're getting on
No deeper love will ever come your way
But nothing in this world
nothing in this world
nothing in this world would make you stay

One Love Will Do - Music and Lyrics by Gordon Haskell

When you're feeling one degree below
Walk the street and no one say hello
You're all alone you got no home nowhere to go

If you're dealing with a broken heart
And you're engine doesn't wanna start
Your out of tune you pray that soon love will show

One love will do One love will do
To make that miracle come true
To make that miracle come true
One love will do

It's a wonder cure for all your pain
You'll be back upon your feet again
In dead of night you'll see the light
You touch the flame

'Cos one love will do One love will do
To make that miracle come true
To make that miracle come true
One love will do

Suddenly you feel that you can fly
Then you know that you are home and dry
The beauty of the wings of love Thank God above

One love will do One love will do
To make that miracle come true
make that miracle come true
One love will do

One love will do
To make that miracle come true
One love will do

My love deserves a medal
For puttin up with me
She says I'll never settle
But she loves takin care of me

And when I look into my baby's eyes
She smiles at me
She laughs away all my little white lies
Maybe she knows I'm out of my mind
For where could I find

Anyone so warm and tender
Anybody who's so true
I don't really mean it
When I'm making my baby blue

When I look into my baby's eyes
She smiles at me
She laughs away all my little white lies
Maybe she knows I'm out of my mind
I must have been blind

My love deserves a medal
For puttin up with me
She says I'll never settle
But I'm hoping she won't set me free

'Cos when I look into my baby's eyes
She smiles at me
She laughs away all my little white lies
Maybe she knows I'm out of my mind
I must have been blind

'Cos where could I find
such a beautiful baby as mine

Way up on the mountain
Where the river's too cold to flow
For reasons best forgotten
I knew I had to go

So I packed up my dilemma
And I dried the final tear
When a wise old man came rolling by
Said "I know just why you're here"

And he smiled, said to me
"There ain't nothing in this world that you can't be"

"You've gotta get into the right town
To put you in the right mood
And pick up with the right girl
And get into a good groove"

"You don't always need a good hand
To build yourself a strong case
It's gotta be the right time
And being in the right place"

So I went down to the valley
I didn't know which way to turn
Then a gypsy lady told me
"There is something you should learn"

"When you ride the roller-coaster
And it takes you round and round
Though your heart is full of tenderness
Don't let it drag you down"

And she smiled, said "Be you
There ain't nothing in this world that you can't do"

"You've gotta get into the right town
To put you in the right mood
And pick up with the right girl
And get into a good groove"

"You don't always need a good hand
To build yourself a strong case
It's gotta be the right time
And being in the right place"

So I checked into the city
And the city felt really good
Then I met the kind of girl
You only get in Hollywood

She worked up in the movies
Asked me would I play the part
Of a guy who lived a lifetime
Trying to hide a broken heart

There it was, the feather bed
Then I suddenly remembered what they said

Well, it must have been the right town
To put me in the right mood
I picked up with the right girl
And got me in a good groove

You don't always need a good hand
To build yourself a strong case
It's gotta be the right time
And being in the right place

Well, it must have been the right town
To put me in the right mood
I picked up with the right girl
She got me in a good groove

You don't always need a good hand
To build yourself a strong case
It's gotta be the right time
And being in the right place

You saw me waiting in the wings
I had no song for me to sing
Like making movies you wrote the part
And every role is from the heart
You tell the story, you set the scene
You take me where I've never been
Your Chilli Chilli broke the ice
Call me over, treat me nice

'Cos you're what I want, you're what I need
You rattle my chain and you pull on my lead
They say you're descended from Fu Manchu
Ooh Chilli Chilli who's inside of you
Who's inside of you Chilli  Chilli

You taught me Russian in the dark
Your Puerto Rican lit a spark
Your undercover CIA in Venezuela
Blew me away
Chilli Chilli good and hot
Simmer gently in your pot
Serve it with a little rice
Call me over, treat me nice

'Cos you're what I want, you're what I need
You rattle my chain and you pull on my lead
They say you're descended from Fu Manchu
Ooh Chilli Chilli who's inside of you
Who's inside of you Chilli  Chilli

When you were playing maid in Japan
You made me up like Charlie Chan
When Dirty Harry met Monroe
You changed into Greta Garbo
Chilli Chilli is it true
You knew I'd fall in love with you
From now on I'm bound to be
Crazy for that recipe

'Cos you're what I want, you're what I need
You rattle my chain and you pull on my lead
They say you're descended from Fu Manchu
Ooh Chilli Chilli who's inside of you
Who's inside of you Chilli  Chilli
