distractions

what is this thing in life that persuades me to spend

time away from you?

if you can answer this you can have the moon. this is the place to be

anyway you can see

there's a lovely view. why are there always so many other things to do?

distractions

like butterflies are buzzing 'round my head

when i'm alone i think of you

and the life we'd lead if we could only be free

from these distractions. the postman's at the door

while the telephone rings on the kitchen wall

pretend we're not at home and they'll disappear. i want to be with you

tell me what i can do

nothing is too small

away from all this jazz we could do anything at all. distractions

like butterflies are buzzing 'round my head. when i'm alone i think of you

and the things we'd do if we could only be through

with these distractions. i'll fond the peaceful place far a way from the noise of a busy day

where we can spend our nights counting shooting stars

distractions

like butterflies are buzzing 'round my head. when i'm alone i think of you

and the things we'd do if we could only be through

with these distractions

like butterflies they're

buzzing 'round my head

when i'm alone i think of you

and the life we'd lead if we could only be free

from these distractions.
