Pay me
The brilliant blues, don't want to be frozen
I'll spend my mornings at the sunshine cafe
I've read the news and the clique-ridden notions
I know that now is the time to say
It's time (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
To teach (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
So tell me (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
Come on tell me (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
It's time (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
To preach (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
So help me (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
Come on and help me (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)

To trust (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
So buy me (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
Come on and try me (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
It's time (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
To thrust (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
So guide me (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
Stay beside me (say goodbye to the brilliant blues)
The brilliant blues will never flow this way again
The colour of the Mersey's grey
The brilliant blues have faded into sadness and pain
And now is the time to say ... It's time
