The Post
English source:
Jeremy Sams
There’s a post horn sounding down the street
So why on earth did you miss a beat,
My heart, my heart?
So why on earth did you miss a beat,
My heart, my heart?
You know, there’ll be no post for you
Stop pounding, like you always do
My heart, my heart
There won’t be any post for you
My heart, my heart
Stop pounding, like you always do
My heart, my heart
You’re right it comes from ‘you-know-where’
And yes I have a sweetheart there
My heart
I used to have a sweetheart there
My heart
My heart
Perhaps
You’d like to hitch a ride
To go and see the blushing bride
My heart, my heart?
I know you’d like to hitch a ride
My heart, my heart
And go and see the blushing bride
My heart, my heart?
So why on earth did you miss a beat,
My heart, my heart?
So why on earth did you miss a beat,
My heart, my heart?
You know, there’ll be no post for you
Stop pounding, like you always do
My heart, my heart
There won’t be any post for you
My heart, my heart
Stop pounding, like you always do
My heart, my heart
You’re right it comes from ‘you-know-where’
And yes I have a sweetheart there
My heart
I used to have a sweetheart there
My heart
My heart
Perhaps
You’d like to hitch a ride
To go and see the blushing bride
My heart, my heart?
I know you’d like to hitch a ride
My heart, my heart
And go and see the blushing bride
My heart, my heart?
