Lyrics

Never been lonely Never been lied to Never had to scuffle in fear Nothing denied to Born at the instant The church bells chime The whole world whispering You born at the right time Down among the reeds and rushes A baby boy was found His eyes as clear as centuries His silky hair was brown Never been lonely Never been lied to Never had to scuffle in fear Nothing denied to Born at the instant The church bells chime The whole world whispering You born at the right time Oh, oh, whoah Whoa, oh-oh Whoah, yeah, oh Me and my buddies we are travelling people We like to go down to restaurant row Spend those Euro-dollars All the way from Washington to Tokyo But I see them in the airport lounge Is upon their mother's breast And they follow me with open eyes Their uninvited guest Never been lonely Never been lied to Never had to scuffle in fear Nothing denied to Born at the instant The church bells chime And my whole world whispering Born at the right time You are born at the right time, oh Born at the right time, whoa, ooh-oh, whoa Whoa, whoa, ooh-whoa Too many people on the bus from the airport There was too many holes in the crust of the earth The planet groans every time it registers another birth But down among the reeds and rushes A baby girl was found Her eyes as clear as centuries Her silky hair was brown (Never been lonely) Whoah, whoah (Never been lied to) Whoah, whoah (Never had to scuffle in fear) Whoah, whoah (Nothing denied to) Born at the instant The church bells chime And the whole world whispering You born at the right time You born at the right time, you are You born at the right time, well You born at the right time, whoah-oh, ooh-oh Born at the instant The church bells chime The whole world whispering You born at the right time, mmh
