Falling off the edge of the world
I’m falling off the edge of the world to be with you my love. I’m falling off the edge of the
Stranger to mercy
Here is a town of warm sun and cold sea, snug by the shore. Here lovers dream over Long Island
The day she said I will

I got the greatest thrill.
Cross of gold
Mary shuts her door,
walks back down the hall,

Keeping a dream alive
I was a boy in no-man’s land,
growing up, going out.
I heard the words of my old man,
build ’em up, knock ’em down.

You like to think you’re strong enough
to show the whole world you’re so very tough.
Nicoll Road
From Nicoll Road, north west ten,
into this town she rode and then
she met a friend as arranged
to talk of how things have changed.
