Instincts

Sally Oldfield

Compositor: Sally Oldfield

Time has come
Down drop you Sun
My mind and I are
Leaving home and heading on
For I'm still young
Ambitions burning
And I've been told that
A passive soul soon grows old

Instincts are a heart's call
A heart's call to move on
And in time I know I'll find
The answer to it all

Father, mother and all that I love
Don't you go crying now
Keep your smile, wish me well
For I'll still
Come back in the summer
And I'll have tales of
The foreign men, handsome all

Instincts are a heart's call
A heart's call to move on
And in time I know I'll find
The answer to it all

Time has come
Down drop you Sun
Years have passed and
Memories they keep flooding back
Chances won and
Chances slipped away
But now I have my eyes
On the long road leading home
