I was hanging around in life
My love called me
To see the band pass
Singing things of love

My suffering people
Farewelled pain
to see the band pass
Singing things of love
The serious man counting money stopped
The lighthouse keeper counting goods stopped
The girlfriend counting stars stopped
To see, hear and make way

The sad girl that lived quietly smiled
The sad rose that lived closed gaped open
And all the kids became excited
To see the band pass
Singing things of love
