Lyrics
Happy Valley you have been my home
Half my life, time has flown
More than I could ever have known
You got under my skin
Traffic’s backed up at the hospital
An Amber Rain makes a waterfall
A duality the locals call
The yang and the yin
Happy Valley you were in my life
Before my kids, before my wife
Oh, the stories you could write
Perhaps it’s just as well
Too early to tell if you will let me be
You’re hanging on, will I wriggle free?
To honor your memory I put you in a song
They roll and they rumble and rounding a turn
The favourites firm
What are the odds on my return?
Happy Valley you’ve been in my dreams
Since I left you back in ‘17
What do all the images mean?
What’s written in the stars?
Our sunlit studio where we went back
Our wedding night, above the track
We never should have sold that flat!
The one we bought during SARS..
Too early by far to tell how things will be
You’re hanging on, will I wriggle free?
To honor your memory I put you in a song
They roll and they rumble and rounding a turn
The favourites firm
What are the odds on my return?
Here’s to the circuit where the horses run
Wednesday nights, when the lights are on
Where the trams they rattle along
They rub, shudder and ding!
The Hindu Temple and the Cemetery
Sing Woo Road with its bakery
And that little pharmacy
Where you can get anything!
Too early to tell if you will let me be
Our parting ways, will it haunt me?
To honor your memory I put you in a song
They roll and they rumble and rounding a turn
The favourites firm
What are the odds on my
What are the odds on my
What are the odds on my return?
