Like I Used to Do - Allan Taylor

Does he call you through the darkness from a thousand miles away

Through those sleepless nights of waiting 'til the night rolls into day

Does he tell you how his colours are fading into grey

When he’s too far in the distance, too long and far away

And when he comes home from the travelling can you see it in his eyes

How he’s burning from the heat of a thousand hidden fires

And does he take you in a moment 'til you know your spirit flies

And sing you through the moonlight 'til the sun is on the rise

Does he come to you in dreams that travel through the times

Bringing back the memories in melodies and rhymes

Can he do this for you, like I used to do

Can he do this for you, like I used to do

Does he bring you spices from the Orient for sweet fragrance in the night

And a jewel from darkest Africa to sparkle in the light

Perfumed waters from the islands to make your body smell so fine

From the sweet Frangipani and the flowering Columbine

Does he come to you in dreams that travel through the times

Bringing back the memories in melodies and rhymes

Can he do this for you, like I used to do

Can he do this for you, like I used to do

Does he come to you in dreams that travel through the times

Bringing back the memories in melodies and rhymes

Can he do this for you, like I used to do

Can he do this for you, like I used to do
