Cliff Richard - The water is wide

Cliff Richard - The water is wide

The water is wide I can't cross over
And neither have I got wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row my love and i

Oh love is gentle and love is kind
The sweetest flower when first it's new
But the only love never waxing cold
Is the love he offers to me and you

Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row my love and i

There's a ship and she sails the sea
She's loaded deep as deep can be
And even deeper than the love I'm in
If I step on board then our love begins
Got to step on board let our love begin
(water is wide and I've got to cross over)

Cliff Richard - We Say Yeah

Cliff Richard - We Say Yeah

Mummy says no
Daddy says no
Brother says no
But they all got to go

(Refrain)
‘Cause we say yeah (yeah-yeah)
We say yeah (yeah-yeah)
We say yeah (yeah-yeah)
We say yeah (yeah)

If we didn't go ahead
And thought of all they said
Might as well give up, man
We might as well be dead

(Ref.)

Now we're moving to the front, baby
We'll sing another song
The older ones, they taught us
They're all dead and gone
(refrain)

We'll aim for the sky
And keep on shooting high
Forget about those problems baby
Don't just sit and sigh

(refrain)

(Instr.)

Umm, now mummy says yeah
And daddy says yeah
My brother says yeah
Maybe they're not so square

We all say yeah (yeah-yeah)
We all say yeah (yeah-yeah)
We say yeah (yeah-yeah)
We say yeah (yeah)

Cliff Richard - When The Girl In Your Arms Is A Girl In Your Heart

Cliff Richard - When The Girl In Your Arms Is A Girl In Your Heart

When the girl in your arms is a girl in your heart,
Then youve got everything,
When youre holding the dream, you can dream when you hold,
You're as rich as a king,

So hold her tight and never let her go
day and night let her know you love her so.
With the love of your life, spend a lifetime of love
Make her young forevermore

So hold her tight and never let her go
day and night let her know you love her so.
With the love of your life, spend a lifetime of love
Make her young forevermore
Make her young forevermore

Cliff Richard - When Two Worlds Drift Apart

Cliff Richard - When Two Worlds Drift Apart

We turned water into wine but that didn't last
We were the victims of our age
Now we live on different floors
And go our separate ways
And talk behind closed doors
We changed our world waiting for it all to end
It's such a shame but who's to blame
When two worlds drift apart

We used to sit around the fire
And whisper words the world outside would make no claim to hear
But now we talk an octave higher
In droning tones that don't relate at all to yester year
We changed our world waiting for it all to end
It's such a shame but who's to blame
When two worlds drift apart

Do you remember when we were seventeen
We took a boat out for an hour
But we preferred the greenery to the scenery of the sea
And tied up in some cosy cove
Till harbour lights appeared across the bay

Into love and out of mind
A poet claimed that loving you has only made me blind
But love is really crystal clear
It's only when you need someone the clouds will soon appear
We changed our world waiting for it all to end
It's such a shame but who's to blame
When two worlds drift apart

Do you remember when laughter was the cure
For all the hard times that we knew
But we forgot to feed the fire - let it all burn down
Warmth returns to cold and poison into pain
It's such a shame but who's to blame
When two worlds drift apart

Remember.....(remember)

Cliff Richard - When you thought of me

Cliff Richard - When you thought of me

From the cradle of england
To a foreign exchange
Thorough the clamour of long years away
I never lost sight of
The reason that I left you:
To return to you one day

From the bleak and familiar
To the tropical strange
Through the glamour of empires abroad
I never abandoned
The hope of reclaiming
My legitimate reward

When you thought of me
If you had the time
You never would have known
The mountains I'd climb

I won't be without again, woman
You won't drive me out again, woman
And as you come to learn
All that *i've done was for you
You'll see what obsession can do
Woman

So the unschooled outcast
The irascible youth
Has become all the things you desired
I took all they offered
And learned their deceptions
All relentlessly acquired

And the eyes of the traveller
See an obvious truth
You've become all the things you've denied
And the loss of ambition
Was colouring your reason
As the pleasure in you died

When you thought of me
Had me on your mind
You never would have dreamed
Of the riches I'd find

I won't be without again, woman
You won't drive me out again, woman
And as you come to learn
All that I've done was for you
You'll see what obsession can do
Woman
