Many roads to travel down and there are many surprises to find
But as luck will have it you can stumble in the valley of the blind
Friends will always tell you fate will rear its ugly head to frighten you
But the hands of time hold something and he's offering it all to you
Watch out for a surprise, it's nature's biggest prize
And when it comforts you, discover it's a small world too
Read your books and study hard to find the kick that makes you carry on
And if lucks a kind friend she will show you how and why it all began
Just look in the backyard, you won't have to look hard
The crossword's final clue, discover it's a small world too
It's a small world too...
When your friends are gathered round and you draw straws to find out who goes first
Climb the wall out of the pleasure garden, see a flower die of thirst
A circle's always round, the truth lies underground
You may just join the queue, discover it's a small world too
It's a small world too...

Stranglers - Golden Brown
Golden Brown
Texture Like Sun
Lays Me Down
With My Mind She Runs
Throughout The Night
No Need To Fight
Never A Frown
With Golden Brown
Every Time
Just Like The Last
On Her Ship
Tied To Her Mast
To Distant Lands
Takes Both My Hands
Never A Frown
With Golden Brown
Golden Brown
Finer Temptress
Through The Ages
She's Heading West
From Far Away
Stays For a Day
Never A Frown
With Golden Brown

Sentimental through the night
Sharing secret candlelight
We're a - way, every day
Laughing, joking, just sustains
Sit - u - a - tion quite in - sane
Flowing wine, quite sublime
Not so far for me to say
I could take you there to - day
Let's tango in paris (x3)
You might find yourself with me
Share your glass of van - i - ty
We're a - way, every day
Not so far for me to say
I could take you there to - day
Let's tango in paris

I went in search of paradise, they said it would be good for my head
I went in search of paradise, but she took me by the head instead
Paris, London
Glamour and despair
Ruins, we were ruined over there
Ruins, we were ruined over there
And when you think you're in paradise, but then you find your arms are tied
Caprive in the name of paradise, the chains are all her lies
Paris, London
Glamour and despair
Ruins, we were ruined over there
Ruins, we were ruined over there
The picture on the screen is moving still, it's moving all the time
If only you freeze frame a moment there, you could have paradise all the time
Paris, London
Glamour and despair
Ruins, we were ruined over there
Ruins, we were ruined over there
I don't think anyone ever found paradise
Cause paradise is based on lies

Black friend of the night, why do you leave in such a hurry?
White friend of the day - you left us working on our worries
Never say goodbye, for we'll all be with you someday
Fond adieus but never say goodbye
Like lo - vers of the past, they swim and surface in our memories
Those questions never last, I'll save them all for the next century
Never say goodbye, for we'll all be with you someday
Fond adieus but never say goodbye Never say goodbye
Tell us what's over the horizon
Is it worth the chance to stick around for more surprising
Never say goodbye, for we'll all be with you someday
Fond adieus but never say goodbye
Never say goodbye, for we'll all be with you someday
Fond adieus but never say goodbye
