Bedsit Paradise - John Parr

Don’t know how love survives

When all I can do is to barely stay alive

Wish I could go back in time

To a bedsit paradise

She sat down next to me

Dunked her biscuit in my tea

You don’t need sugar

You’re sweet enough for me

Told me she was movin' in

We’d be sharin' everything

Baby you and I in a bedsit paradise

Days of summer wine

We were laughing all the time

Partners in crime

I could love her without even tryin'

Baby you and I

In a bedsit paradise

Only had a single bed

Got as close as two can get

Makin' love while Lennon sang Imagine

Stuck your posters on my wall

Che Guevara, John and Paul

They were lookin' down on nights of passion

Days of summer wine

Makin' love most of the time

Partners in crime

I could love her without even tryin'

Baby you and I in a bedsit paradise

Time goes by

While we’re dreamin' of tomorrow

Turnin' tides while the love just ebbs away

A faded photograph or two

With pain all over you

Days of summer wine

We were laughin' all the time

Won’t you take me back in time

To a bedsit paradise

Thought those days would never end

You were my best friend

Partners in crime

I could love you without even tryin'

Days of summer wine

We were laughin' all the time

Now I’m just a lonely guy

In a bedsit paradise
