To Roberta Songtext
von Barry Saunders

I found a picture of you
From a beach in Spain
We were such pretty people
Way back then
This town to London town
It′s a long way to go
Just to find that your heart
Is all covered in snow
Down at the Kingdom Hall
I hear voices singing
Away, away
It's all coming down
Out in the Lucky Islands
You′re either sinking or swimming
Tell me, are you still treading water
There in London town?
Oh, it's leaned on Captain Scott
Whispered in his ear
I may be sometime gone
I may be sometime gone


Yodel-a-ee-he-he
A-lie-la-lie-la-la-lie-la-la-lie-la-lie
Yodel-a-ee-he-he
A-lie-la-lie-la-la-lie-la-la-lie-la-lie
Time, she's a glacier
Creaking past your door
Carrying what′s up ahead
And whatever went before
Still, down at the Kingdom Hall
I hear voices singing
Away, away
It′s all coming down
Out in the Lucky Islands
You're either sinking or swimming
Tell me, are you still treading water
There in London town?
If you should see Roberta
Tell her this from me
I feel a long time gone
I feel a long time gone
I found a picture of her
From a beach in Spain
We were such pretty people
Way, way back then
Yodel-a-ee-he-he
A-lie-la-lie-la-la-lie-la-la-lie-la-lie
Yodel-a-ee-he-he
A-lie-la-lie-la-la-lie-la-la-lie-la-lie
Yodel-a-ee-he-he
A-lie-la-lie-la-la-lie-la-la-lie-la-lie
Yodel-a-ee-he-he
A-lie-la-lie-la-la-lie-la-la-lie-la-lie
