Lyrics
Saddle up early, the square's waking wide Baskets on handlebars, swinging with pride Ring the bell, ring the bell, here we come Down the cobbled lane to the beat of a drum Past the cheese and the honey Past the bread, warm and sunny Ride me past the flower stalls Through the roses and the rain-wet shawls Wheels go round and my heart goes too Every petal is a kiss for you Ride me past, ride me past Let the morning go by fast Ride me past the flower stalls And never stop at all Tulips in buckets and a boy with a tray Lemons like lanterns lighting the way You lean in close and you shout in my ear I've never been happier, never been here Past the cheese and the honey Past the bread, warm and sunny Ride me past the flower stalls Through the roses and the rain-wet shawls Wheels go round and my heart goes too Every petal is a kiss for you Ride me past, ride me past Let the morning go by fast Ride me past the flower stalls And never stop at all One bunch of daisies tucked in the chain We'll take them home through the golden lane The whole world's a market and we are the crowd Singing together, singing out loud Ride me past the flower stalls Through the roses and the rain-wet shawls Wheels go round and my heart goes too Every petal is a kiss for you Ride me past, ride me past Let the morning go by fast Ride me past the flower stalls And never stop at all Ride me past And never stop at all
