Mike Oldfield - To France

Taking on water, sailing a restless sea

From a memory, a fantasy

The wind carries into white water

Far from the islands

Don't you know you're...

Never going to get to France

Mary Queen of Chance will they find you

Never going to get to France

Could a new romance ever bind you

Walking on foreign ground like a shadow

Roaming in far off territory

Over your shoulder stories unfold

You're searching for sanctuary

You know you're...

Never going to get to France

Mary Queen of Chance will they find you

Never going to get to France

Could a new romance ever bind you

I see a picture

By the lamp's flicker

Isn't it strange how

Dreams fade and shimmer

Never going to get to France

Mary Queen of Chance will they find you

Never going to get to France

Could a new romance ever bind you

I see a picture

By the lamp's flicker

Isn't it strange how

Dreams fade and shimmer

Never going to get to France

Mary Queen of Chance will they find you

Never going to get to France

Could a new romance ever bind you

Never going to get to France

Never going to...
