Bunbury Afternoon Lyrics

England in the summer is a pretty sight 
Flowers in the meadow in the morning light 
You know , satisfy the song inside 
And the dream is making you care , ev'rybody smiles 
And the dream is taking you there 

There's a little bit of heaven on the village green 
And the Bunbury Eleven that you never see 
And they take all comers in the month of June 
On a Friday , Saturday , Sunbury afternoon 
On a Friday , Saturday , Bunbury afternoon 
On a Friday , Saturday , Bunbury afternoon 

They all say it couldn't be real 
Shakin' their head in wonder 
Makin' it long drive home 
And when the sun and the moment is gone 
Breakin' that spell we're under 
We played a part in the heart of a beautiful memory 
There's a baby in a cradle and a wise old man 
Young lovers happy to be hand in hand 

Ev'rybody finds their way 
They will learn the secret in time 
There's a ring on her finger 
And a love that shows 
And the Bunbury Eleven say the rumor goes 
They 're married in the church in the month of June 
On a Friday , Saturday , Sunbury afternoon 
On a Friday , Saturday , Bunbury afternoon 
On a Friday , Saturday , Bunbury afternoon 

There's a wind in the willows 
When the day is done 
People disappearing in the golden sun 
You know , ev'rybody smiles 
There's a little bit of heaven on ....
