Living In Harmony

Her watch said eight
She would have to wait to be slightly late
She didn't want him to think she was too keen

He'd bought some flowers
Nothing fancy, just forget-me-nots
He thought he should have bought that box of dark chocolates

And they stood there side by side
In the early evening rain
And they waited until nine o' clock
But their prospective dates they never came

Remember when they met
He hadn't started shaving yet
Dragging on a Consulate and laughing

If I could weave a hex
I'd take them back to the Town Hall steps
And when she says 'What happens next?'
I'll say 'My dears you'll never guess -
In twenty years from now you're living in Harmony'.

She went to leave
He caught her sleeve and said 'Excuse me please',
And handing her the flowers continued 'Would you like these?'
She said 'They're lovely' - well she lied because they were not at all -
Just some old forget-me-nots in tin foil

And they went off to the Wimpy
And they met on Wednesdays
And within a month they were holding hands
And within a year they had nothing left to say

Remember when they met
Well how could anyone forget?
Both stood up and soaking wet and laughing

If I had just one wish
I'd take them back to before all this

And as they are about to kiss
I'd whisper in their little ears
'In twenty years from now you're living in Harmony,
Living in Harmony,
Living in Harmony'.

They built Harmony on the place they used to play
Where the playground was they built the Harmony Estate
Flats and maisonettes, some for sale but most to let
A thousand families all living harmoniously

He slammed the door and said
'Those kids have done the lifts again,
I've had to walk up fifteen flights and it's pouring with rain'.

She put his tea up - nothing fancy, just some eggs and chips
She thought she should have done those breaded cod fillets

And they sat beside the telly
Waiting for eight o' clock
And they crossed all of their fingers
Pinned their hopes on their six numbers coming up

Remember when they met
They were too young to place a bet
High on just one cigarette and laughing

If I just one more wish
I'd take them back to '76
And when she says 'Where do we go from here?'
I'd interrupt and say 'Go anywhere -
Or in twenty years from now you're living in Harmony,
Living in Harmony,
Living in Harmony,
Living in Harmony,
Living in Harmony,
Living in Harmony'.

Wonderful lyrics, one of my favourites. Also like the `deep` ones such as `House of the Setting Sun`, so familiar as I was working in the field at the time and saw this happening all around. Would you be able to post the lyrics to `Colour Her In`, another very deep lyric that makes my blood run cold but I can`t remember it all. Thank you
