Guy Fletcher - Margaret Set Lyrics

As the lovers sleep the night entwined
No better place for them to unwind
The picture of their honesty
Will soon be born for the world to see
It's not the face that tells the story
Or the years spent hanging in glory
Stare for hours with eyes unblinking
Not even I know what I'm thinking
And I don't know what I'm thinking
But there's a long way for us to go
Before we can really know
What lies beneath the living snow
In winters white the colours glow
I'm heading West to place my bet
Then I'm meeting up with the Margaret Set
Vainly time works without regret
And my sable is permanently wet
Time and love are kind to me and you
I'm just doing something that I can't do
There's no colour like the white of your eyes
No hiding, there's no disguise
Truth is more than just revealing
Stained skin and love unfeeling
Just skin and love unfeeling
But there's a long way for us to go
Before we may really know
What lies beneath the living snow
In winters white the colours glow
I'm heading West to place my bet
Then I'm meeting up with the Margaret Set

As the lovers sleep the night entwined
No better place for them to unwind
The picture of their honesty
Will soon be born for the world to see
It's not the face that tells the story
Or the years spent hanging in glory
Stare for hours with eyes unblinking
Not even I know what I'm thinking
And I don't know what I'm thinking
But there's a long way for us to go
Before we can really know
What lies beneath the living snow
In winters white the colours glow
I'm heading West to place my bet
Then I'm meeting up with the Margaret Set
Vainly time works without regret
And my sable is permanently wet
Time and love are kind to me and you
I'm just doing something that I can't do
There's no colour like the white of your eyes
No hiding, there's no disguise
Truth is more than just revealing
Stained skin and love unfeeling
Just skin and love unfeeling
But there's a long way for us to go
Before we may really know
What lies beneath the living snow
In winters white the colours glow
I'm heading West to place my bet
Then I'm meeting up with the Margaret Set
