Vicki Brown - Lu le la

It was a cold day in London
As I sat daydreaming behind my desk
I was looking at a travel poster
Hawain boy in Southsea dress
And thinking of what he would be like
And just then I realized
He smiled at me
And said to me

Lu le la le lu la
Lu le la le lu la
Oh, how I wish I could be there
Lu le la le lu la
Lu le la le lu la
Lu le la le lu la
If only I could be with him
Lu le la le lu la

It was a warm day and the rolling tide
It hushed along the silver sand
And I was there beside him
And I hoped my dream would never end
But as he looked into my eyes
A cloud passed across the sky
And it was half past three
Time for tea
But I still hear

Lu le la le lu la
Lu le la le lu la
How I wish I could be there
Lu le la le lu la
Lu le la le lu la
Lu le la le lu la
If only I could be with him
Lu le la le lu la
