"Writer In The Sun (Demo)" lyrics - DONOVAN

The days of wine and roses
Are distant days for me
I dream of the last and the next affair
And of girls I'll never see

And here I sit, the retired writer in the sun
The retired writer in the sun and I'm blue
The retired writer in the sun

Tonight I trod on starlight
I excused myself with a grin
I ponder the moon in a silver spoon
And the little one alive within, within

And here I sit, the retired writer in the sun
The retired writer in the sun

The magazine girl poses
On my glossy paper aeroplane
Too many years I spent in the City
Playing with loss and gain

And here I sit, the retired writer in the sun
The retired writer in the sun and I'm blue
The retired writer in the sun

The days of wine and roses
Are distant days for me
I dream of the last and the next affair
And of girls I'll never see

And here I sit, the retired writer in the sun
The retired writer in the sun and I'm blue
The retired writer in the sun and I'm blue
The retired writer in the sun
