Hurry, hurry, hurry (G. Kooymans) 1969 On The Double

You’re tired of all your imitation friends and your job, of course is boring
And when you’re at home and you sit before the fire and you look into the flames
Then you see you gotta leave in the early morning
You wanna go there where your friends will be friends and your job, a vacation trip
And the dark days, oh sunny moments
But even when I try and I try so hard to leave you here alone
It isn’t easy, I’m almost chained

Hurry, hurry, hurry before the time will run too fast
And then you’ll never reach your kind and careless places
Hurry, hurry, hurry before the time will run too fast
And then you’ll never see your kind and friendly faces

Here in the field, one by one, with our last bits of food
We’re patiently waitin’ for the daybreak
Till something is happening that just faded away in the completely tired minds
Still the remembrance, oh my mind aches
Maybe you’re ill, but you try to rise to get a view of the scene to see a handful of glory
Fascinated by what you’ve seen, you return to here to the lost glorious ages

Hurry, hurry, hurry before the time will run too fast
And then you’ll never reach your kind and careless places
Hurry, hurry, hurry before the time will run too fast
And then you’ll never see your kind and friendly faces

All I need is something else inside that changes me
I wish something were happening here to me

Hurry, hurry, hurry before the time will run too fast
And then you’ll never reach your kind and careless places
Hurry, hurry, hurry before the time will run too fast
And then you’ll never see your kind and friendly faces

Believe me when I tell you
Hurry, hurry, hurry before the time will run too fast
And then you’ll never reach your kind and careless places
Hurry, hurry, hurry before the time will run too fast
And then you’ll never see your kind and friendly faces

Believe me when I tell you
Hurry, hurry, hurry before the time will run too fast
And then you’ll never reach your kind and careless places
