there's a black cat lying in the shadow of a gatepost

...and this black cat
keep tellin me: "Love
is on its way! Don't go...
Don't leave me now,now,now.
While the sun is smiling,
stick around and laugh awhile yeah"

There's white horses and they're coming at me at a pace now

and there's a blue sirocco blowing warm into my face.

The sun is shining on the other side of the bridges

and the cars going by with smiles in the windows.

There's a black cat lying in the shadow of the gate-post

and the black cat keeps telling me that love is on it's way.

There's smell of fresh cut grass and it's filling up my senses
and the sun is shining down on the blossoms in the avenue.
There's a buzzing fly hanging around the bluebells and the daisies
and there's a lot more loving left in this world.
