Kayleigh / Lavender / Heart of Lothian Songtext
von Marillion

Do you remember? Chalk hearts melting on a playground wall.
Do you remember? Dawn escapes from moonwashed college halls.
Do you remember? Cherry blossoms in the market square.
Do you remember? I thought it was confetti in our hair.
By the way, didn′t I break your heart?
Please excuse me, I never meant to break your heart.
So sorry, I never meant to break your heart.
But you broke mine.
Kayleigh, is it too late to say I'm sorry?
And Kayleigh can we get it together again?
I just can′t go on pretending that it came to a natural end.
Kayleigh, I never thought I'd miss you.
And Kayleigh I thought that we'd always be friends.
We said our love would last forever, so how did it come to this bitter end?
Do you remember? Barefoot on the lawn with shooting stars.
Do you remember? Loving on the floor in Belsize Park.
Do you remember? Dancing in stilletoes in the snow.
Do you remember? You never understood I had to go.
By the way, didn′t I break your heart?
Please excuse me, I never meant to break your heart.


So sorry, I never meant to break your heart.
But you broke mine.
Kayleigh, I just wanna say I′m sorry,
But Kayleigh I'm too scared to pick up the phone.
To hear you′ve found another lover to patch up our broken home.
Kayleigh, I'm still trying to write that love song,
Kayleigh it′s more important to me now you're gone.
Maybe it′ll prove that we were right,
Or it'll prove that I was wrong.
I was walking in the park dreaming of a spark,
When heard the sprinklers' whisper shimmer in the haze of summer lawns.
Then I heard the children sing. They were running through the rainbow.
They were singing a song for you. Yes it seemed to be a song for you, the one I wanted to write for you.
For you. You.
Lavenders blue (dilly dilly), lavenders green.
When I am king (dilly dilly), you will be queen.
A penny for your thoughts my dear, a penny for your thoughts my dear.
I owe you for your love, I owe you for your love.
Lavenders green, lavenders blue.
When you love me, don′t you know that I will love you.
A penny for your thoughts my dear, a penny for your thoughts my dear.
I owe you for your love, I owe you for your love.
For your love.
Can′t stop the rain. I can't stop the rain.
I can′t stop the rain. I can't stop the rain.
I can′t stop the rain. I can't stop the rain.
I can′t stop the rain. I can't stop the rain.
Wide boys, wide boys, wide boys, born with hearts of Lothian.
We were wide boys, wide boys, born with hearts of Lothian.
We were wide boys, wide boys, born with hearts of Lothian.
We were wide boys, wide boys, born with hearts of Lothian.
It's six o′clock in the tower blocks
Stalagmites of culture shock
And the trippers of the light fantastic, bow down, hoe-down
Spray their pheromones on, this perfume uniform
And anarchy smiles in the Royal Mile
And they′re waiting on the highboys, flyboys, wideboys
Rooting, tooting cowboys
Lucky little ladies at the watering holes
They'll score the Friday night goals
I was born with a heart of Lothian
I was born with a heart of Lothian
I was born with a heart of Lothian, heart of Lothian, heart of Lothian.
With a heart of Lothian.
