“AGAIN, & YET AGAIN”<\/span><\/h1>\n

I stood at this same bus-stop, where many years ago<\/span>
\n I waited for a girl, who I had loved so long before<\/span>
\n Yes, there she was, in the same bus<\/span>
\n As toward me now, it came<\/span>
\n So I joined her, to re-live our dreams again<\/span><\/p>\n

We sat beside each other, as I gently took her hand<\/span>
\n It was the same old feeling, right back in wonderland<\/span>
\n I told her I was sorry, that we ever had to part<\/span>
\n She was always & she still was, my sweetheart<\/span><\/p>\n

Again & yet again, we dreamed our dreams anew<\/span>
\n Again & yet again, she softly whispered “I love you”<\/span>
\n It had been many years, <\/span>
\n but once more, the same old flame<\/span>
\n We shared “memories”again & yet again.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Music-interlude” (covering 1st 2 verses\/semitone up)<\/span>
\n Back to Chorus :-Again & yet again, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lyrics & Music by Desmond Kelly.<\/span>
\n Star of eLanka”<\/span><\/p>\n

THE “SHORT-STORY”, IN SONG.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

“Obviously written to depict the era in Ceylon when the old C.T.B. double-decker buses were the favourite mode of transport. The “bus-stop” I am referring to, is the one that existed many many moons ago, right outside the little “Childrens’ Book-Shop” in Colombo Fort, the rest of the “story” is but a figment of my imagination, believe it or not. Again & yet again, I have been telling my good friends this, but again & yet again they do not believe me. Such is life”!! D.K.F.C.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
