There once was a time Never far from my mind On the beach, on the 4th of July I remember the sand How you held out your hand And we touched for what seemed a lifetime But it’s hard Leaving all this behind me now Like a schoolboy so lost Never found until now And all this could be Just a dream so it seems I was never much good at goodbye ---

I must be feeling low I talked to God in a phonebox on my way home I told you my answer I left you my dreams on your answering machine Come on Let the spirit inside you Don’t wait to be found Come along with my sound Let the spirit move you Let the waves come up They’ll fuse you I never met no one to deny a sound ---

All my memories gather round her Miner’s lady, stranger to blue water Dark and dusty, painted on the sky Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye Country roads, take me home to the place I belong. West Virginia, mountain momma, take me home, country roads I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me The radio reminds me of my home far away And driving down the road I get a feeling That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday Country roads, take me home to the place I belong. West Virginia, mountain momma, take me home, country roads ---

Oh a fish-like thing appeared among the annelids one day It hadn’t any parapods nor setae to display It hadn’t any eyes or jaws or ventral nervous chord, But it had a lot of gill slits and it had a notochord. It’s a long way from Amphioxus It’s a long way to us, It’s a long way from Amphioxus To the meanest human cuss. Well, it’s good-bye to fins and gill slits, And it’s welcome lungs and hair, It’s a long, long way from Amphioxus But we all came from there. ---

Molly wrote a neat reply to Irish Paddy 0. Saying. “Mike Mahoney wants to marry me, and so Leave the Strand and Piccadilly, or you’ll be to blame For love has fairly drove me silly, hoping you’re the same!” lt’s a long way to Tipperary, It’s a long way to go; It’s a long way to Tipperary, To the sweetest girl I know!
