India my dear, you're almost out of luck That slender chain of pearls you wear Around your slender neck Is fallen to the floor - why don't you pick it up? India my dear It's not that i don't love you But the world's moved on And the colours in your eyes Don't mix with mine It's not that i don't trust you But there's nothing more to say India, my dear India my dear, you're nothing but kindness And i don't expect you'd say the same of me We did all of our crying in a lay-by by the road side And i can see so clearly now i can no longer see Did you know when i first saw you I felt i was falling into grace: To see your bright hair burning Around your smiling face? But i see the colours fading from you Like you're too much in the light And i hate to watch you fading, india India my dear - we're almost out of time I can't sit and watch you crumble like a child There's colours out there in the rain That i first saw in your eyes India my dear It's not that i don't love you But there's nothing more to say And the colours in your eyes Don't mix with mine It's not that i don't trust you But the world's moved on India my love
