lyrics

Jack and Jill sat on top of a hill
Blow wind blow, pop goes the weasel
Old King Cole was a merry old soul
A merry soul was he

As I sat under a sycamore tree
I closed my eyes and I started to see
With a pebble in my hand I wrote it out in the sand
Where I wanna be

It’s like my tongue found a melody
And the answer to this mystery
Now I can’t help but say

I’ve been
Livin’ for this moment
Wishin’ for this moment
I’m flyin’ in a moment like this, like I’m on a potion of bliss and
I’ve been
Livin’ with no tomorrow
And I’ve got no time for no sorrow
‘Cos I’ve been flyin’ upon these wings
The Wings of the Moment

Rock and Roll, you can put up a show
You got the flow, you don’t need your spectacles
Old King Cole was a merry old soul
But he’s younger than His Majesty

As I sat under a sycamore tree
I closed my eyes and I started to see
Of all the lands and grand plans I wrote out in the sand
There’s no place that I’d rather be

It’s like my tongue found a melody
And the words for this ecstasy
Now I can’t help but say

I’ve been
Livin’ for this moment
Wishin’ for this moment
I’m flyin’ in a moment like this, like I’m on a potion of bliss and
I’ve been
Livin’ with no tomorrow
And I’ve got no time for no sorrow
‘Cos I’ve been flyin’ upon these wings
The Wings of the Moment

I’ve been
Livin’ for this moment
Wishin’ for this moment
I’m flyin’ in a moment like this, like I’m on a potion of bliss and
I’ve been
Livin’ with no tomorrow
And I’ve got no time for no sorrow
‘Cos I’ve been flyin’ upon these wings
The Wings of the Moment
