Cliff Richard - When You Thought Of Me lyrics

From the cradle of england To a foreign exchange Thorough the clamour of long years away I never lost sight of The reason that i left you: To return to you one day From the bleak and familiar To the tropical strange Through the glamour of empires abroad I never abandoned The hope of reclaiming My legitimate reward When you thought of me If you had the time You never would have known The mountains i'd climb I won't be without again, woman You won't drive me out again, woman And as you come to learn All that *i've done was for you You'll see what obsession can do Woman So the unschooled outcast The irascible youth Has become all the things you desired I took all they offered And learned their deceptions All relentlessly acquired And the eyes of the traveller See an obvious truth You've become all the things you've denied And the loss of ambition Was colouring your reason As the pleasure in you died When you thought of me Had me on your mind You never would have dreamed Of the riches i'd find I won't be without again, woman You won't drive me out again, woman And as you come to learn All that i've done was for you You'll see what obsession can do Woman
