Donna Devine songs
This was a song I thought would never get finished, but lo and behold, to my surprise and delight it materialised - after a year - last week. (-: I hope it takes some of you down Memory Lane. Maybe even Penny Lane. (-:

Lyrics: Donna Devine
Crossing Abbey Road
(v1)
A woman I once loved
Walks towards me slowly
Wraps a maxi-coat around her
In a gesture almost holy
She looks quite normal
An impression that won’t last
She’s caught in amber
A jewel from the past
Pre-chorus
Those were the days my friend
For her they’ll never end/never end
Chorus
Her mind’s a Bermuda Triangle
Filled with psychedelic waste
It’s all unchartable space
And the only thought she holds
Is to count aloud the zebra stripes
While crossing Abbey Road/crossing Abbey Road
(v2)
We strolled once through Hyde Park
Giggling in the rain
Ate a 99 Flake
From the ice-cream van
Watched a three-dimension rainbow
As it glorified the skies
And when the sun returned
I saw it dancing in her eyes
Pre-chorus
Those were the days my friend
For her they’ll never end/never end
Chorus
Her mind’s a Bermuda Triangle
Filled with psychedelic waste
It’s all unchartable space
And the only thought she holds
Is to count aloud the zebra stripes
While crossing Abbey Road/crossing Abbey Road
Lift
Her elevator stops at the 13th floor
At a room that’s never locked
The dead are always grateful
When she comes to sit and talk
(v3)
Now she lives by herself
But is never alone
Voices laughing in her head
Though no one ever phones
She fell from Lucy's diamond sky
But can still describe the ways
She hears the colours in her mind
Sees notes when music plays
Pre-chorus
Once the woman held me fast
Now she walks blindly past
Chorus
Her mind’s a Bermuda Triangle
Filled with psychedelic waste
It’s all unchartable space
And the only thought she holds
Is to count aloud the zebra stripes
While crossing Abbey Road/crossing Abbey Road
