Mary Skeffington, close your eyes

And make believe that you are just a girl again

Go to sleep tonight, dream of days

When you had something there to light the way.



Remember a holiday in a north-of-England town

You slept in a room upstairs on a bed of eiderdown.



Mary Skeffington, when you wake

You mustn't be afraid to face another day

Think of what you have, you'll get by

You've always been a lady so hold your head up high.



Look back on a home where you spent the best years of your life

Remember the man who asked you if you would be his wife.



Mary Skeffington, close your eyes

And make believe that you are just a girl again

Go to sleep tonight, dream of days

When you had something there to light the way.

  • Get It Right Next Time
    "Get It Right Next Time
    Gerry Rafferty
    Out on the street I was talkin' to a man
    He said "there's so much of this life of mine that I don't understand"..."
  • Baker Street
    "Winding your way down on Baker Street
    Light in your head and dead on your feet
    Well another crazy day
    You drink the night away..."
  • Moonlight And Gold
    "Moonlight and gold
    Midsummer magic when the night turns to day
    And songbirds greet the dawn
    You lie awake..."
  • Stuck In The Middle With You
    "Well I don't know why I came here tonight
    I got the feeling that something ain't right
    I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
    And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs..."
  • Night Owl
    "Night comes down and finds you alone
    In a space and time of your own
    Lost in dreams in a world full of shadows
    Down the street the neon light shines..."
  • Waiting for the Day
    "Well here I am, back in town
    Just as the night is comin' down
    Warm wind blowin' through the trees
    I watch them swing, I watch them sway..."
  • Right Down the Line
    "You know I need your love, You got that hold over me
    Long as I got your love, You know that I'll never leave
    When I wanted you to share my life, I had no doubt in my mind
    And it's been you, woman, right down the line..."
  • Bring It All Home
    "I was lost on an endless sea
    Going down, going down, going down on an endless sea
    Sail with the wind, you weather the storm
    You bring it all home, bring it all home, you bring it all home...."
