Text: Roxy Music. Country Life. If It Takes All Night.
Oh here it comes again
That old ennui
I hope it won't stay long
Well it's every-man to his own thing
And every singer to his song
If you're feeling low
And all upset
Nothing's going right
You just make a wish
Like in a fairy tale
And I'll bewitch you
If it takes all night
There are many things
That I could say
To try and comfort you
But I know the words you'd like to hear
Are simply "I love you"
Sometimes I'm up
Sometimes I'm down
A topsy-turvy life
But only searching
For the truth
And I'll find it
If it takes all night long
Well I myself
May main concern
Is what I can afford
So if music be my mistress
Then at least she's Madame Claude...d'accord
Ah - more champagne!
To lose this pain
Would be very nice
So I'll help myself to one more drink
And I'll find myself
If it takes all night long
Country Life
