Southern Nights - Live At The Royal Festival Hall, London/1977

Southern nights
Have you ever felt a southern night?
Free as a breeze, not to mention the trees
Whistling tunes that you know and love so

Southern nights
Just as good even when closed your eyes
I apologize to anyone who can truly say
That he has found a better way
Yeah

Southern skies
Have you ever noticed southern skies? (the southern sky)
It's precious beauty lies just beyond the eye
It goes running thru your soul like the stories told of old

Old man, he and his dog they walk the old land
Every flower touched his cold hand
As he slowly walked by
Weeping willows cry for joy
Joy

Feels so good
Feels so good it's frightning, wish I could
Stop thid world from fighting
La-ta-da-da-da-ta-da-da
Ta-da-da-da-da-da-ta-da-ta-da-ta

Mysteries like this and many others in the trees
They glow in the night in southern skies

Southern nights, where the things are good
It's frightning that I wish I could
Stop this old world from fighting
La-ta-da-da-ta-da-da-da-ta
Ta-da-da-da-ta-da-da-da-ta-da

(Southern sky)
Have you ever been to southern sky? (southern sky)
They glow in the night in the southern sky
