Tom Tom

Tom Tom, the bottom end is gone
The phone rings and I hope that James is wrong
Tom Tom, he was the quiet one
His love now left in mourning for Happy's only son

So if your heart is slowly breaking
Feel the pulse this song is making

Tom Tom, always right in tune
He's groovin' on the left side down in the engine room
Jammin' in a dream from forty years ago
I need to play along and I want you all to know
Keep the love but lose the sorrow
And let it fly into tomorrow

He's flying away from the great cold city
Flying out of London in the rain, in the rain
All those years long ago were a stitch in time
As sweet as sugar cane, sweet a sugar cane

Tom Tom, he's always looking down
He's reading something sent from home when he's not around
Tom Tom, oh the mystery is long
Tell me, did you leave us one more highway song

Now we're on the plane or getting on the bus
Walking to the stage, ashes dust to dust
And if your heart is slowly breaking
Won't you feel the pulse this song is making, no mistaking

Tom Tom, he was the quiet one
Tom Tom, the bottom end is gone
Tom Tom, oh the mystery is long
Tom Tom...
