lyrics

In the hilltops and the corner shops
She stole your heart and ran
All the boys tell you to stop
But she’s your kind of man

The smile that disarms is a countess of charms
Tear yourself away
And don’t be alarmed when you falls through her arms
You’ll live to love another day

From Solihull to the Isle of Mull
She’ll find you and your fear
She’ll promise you a lifetime
But will always disappear

The smile that disarms is a countess of charms
Tear yourself away
And don’t be alarmed when you fall through her arms
You’ll live to love another day

There’s fatalists and there’s nihilists
And martyrs who have seen her
Dying for a country
Where the grass is always greener

The smile that disarms is a countess of charms
Tear yourself away
And don’t be alarmed when you fall through her arms
You’ll live to love another day
