Electric nights

We sat and watched the dawn come up, from the hill above the town.
It nearly made our heart beats stop, when the colours came all around.
And as the day began to break, a skylark sang above.
And the sun came warm across the land, and filled our hearts with love.
Electric nights your magic lingers on.
Electric flights when our hearts and mind were young.I've never felt a love so strong as the love I felt then.
And we said that we would always try and make it back again.
But East is East and West is West and never the twain shall meet.
But 0 what wouldn't I give to be right back there on that street.
Electric nights your magic lingers on.
Electric flights when our hearts and mind were young.
Electric nights I can feel the thrill of your electric flights.
Your memory haunts me still.
And when it's time to close my eyes and lay down for my rest.
The pictures that just spring to mind, are the ones that I love best.
All of us lying there looking up at the sky,never looking for a reason never asking why.
It seems as though a million years has passed since those old days.
And though the moment that I'm in is just passing phase.
I still can recall the presence of my friends right by my side.
And all I gotta do just to bring them back is gently close my eyes.
Electric nights your magic lingers on.
Electric flights when our hearts and minds were young.
Electric nights, I still can feel the thrill of your electric flights,when we were up Malvern Hills.
