Barry Adamson - Death Takes A Holiday

I'm dancing on the leaves of the trees
Swinging on a sweet, sweet breeze
It's happening daily

[Verse 2]
The birds all sing baby, my-oh-my
The stars and the planets just a-float on by
Yeah, I am a deity

[Verse 3]
And my words they'll fall with a smile
Laughter gonna ring for miles and miles
From here to Haiti

[Verse 4]
And it seems just like any other day
But I kicked Death's ass and I'm on his way
Now no need to save me

[Chorus]
Hold me, baby
Stop me going crazy
Jump in the water of my sleepy dream
Of love forever
Hold me, baby
Stop me going crazy
Jump in the water when I say
Death takes a holiday

[Verse 5]
Now I've never seen the sky so blue
I never felt this close to you
It ain't no illusion

[Verse 6]
And those shadows leap, twist and shift
There's a blinding light and it's about to hit
That ain't no diffusion

[Verse 7]
So what's the deal with Happy Boy
Empty-headed and full of joy
For our amusement

[Verse 8]
Well, I kicked Death's ass and I'm on his way
Booked him a five-star holiday
There's your conclusion

[Chorus]
Hold me, baby
Stop me going crazy
Jump in the water of my sleepy dream
Of love forever
Hold me, baby
Stop me going crazy
Jump in the water when I say
Death takes a holiday

[Bridge]
I don't care what The Reaper say
Death can go take a holiday
January through til May
Sitting on the beach every goddamn day, yeah

I don't care what The Reaper say
Death can go take a holiday
January through til May
Singing this ditty all the goddamn day, so

[Chorus]
Hold me, baby
Stop me going crazy
Jump in the water of my sleepy dream
Of love forever
Hold me, baby
Stop me going crazy
Jump in the water when I say
Death takes a holiday

[Outro]
I don't care what The Reaper say
Death can go take a holiday
January through til May
Laying on the beach every goddamn day, yeah

I don't care what The Reaper say
Death can go take a holiday
January through til May
I'm gonna take a holiday
