CLIFF RICHARD

CLIFF RICHARD - When You Thought Of Me lyrics

From the cradle of England

To a foreign exchange

Thorough the clamour of long years away

I never lost sight of

The reason that I left you:

To return to you one day

From the bleak and familiar

To the tropical strange

Through the glamour of empires abroad

I never abandoned

The hope of reclaiming

My legitimate reward

When you thought of me

If you had the time

You never would have known

The mountains I'd climb

I won't be without again, woman

You won't drive me out again, woman

And as you come to learn

All that *I've done was for you

You'll see what obsession can do

Woman

So the unschooled outcast

The irascible youth

Has become all the things you desired

I took all they offered

And learned their deceptions

All relentlessly acquired

And the eyes of the traveller

See an obvious truth

You've become all the things you've denied

And the loss of ambition

Was colouring your reason

As the pleasure in you died

When you thought of me

Had me on your mind

You never would have dreamed

Of the riches I'd find

I won't be without again, woman

You won't drive me out again, woman

And as you come to learn

All that I've done was for you

You'll see what obsession can do

Woman
