England's Glory - The Wide Waterway

As anybody knows
There's not much left for him to show
He just remembers how he almost froze
On the wide waterway

He seems to know me well
As I step out of the big hotel
And just as he's about to yell
I sit back and walk away

I could even be an actor
It's better than reading books
I don't ever scream at her
I like the way she cooks

There's a reason for us all to get on

Life can be cruel at times
It often is but I don't mind
It's all part of being tied
To the wide waterway

Ah ha, ah ha
Ooh, that wide waterway

She says she knows about the dreams and lies
But I can tell from her eyes
When I speak it fills her up with surprise
There's nothing I can say

There's a reason for us all to get on

I said there ain't no one alive
Who can live without love
If they tell you they're hard
They're only fooling

And the time is right
For living the way you feel
Existing in a dream isn't cool any more

When you come over the wide waterway
When you come over the wide waterway
When you come over the wide waterway
When you come over the wide waterway
