Lonnie Hicks - A Roving Band Of Lovers

They were a Roving Band of Lovers br kissing hands br smiling and winking. br br They bowed to old ladies on the streets br over-tipped waiters br gave young girls flowers br for no reason. br br They never cried; br stood on tip-toe br and invited people br to see Infinity; br did dances in the streets br and little plays in the subways; br br carried around little cookie trays br made music with harmonicas. br br They were a Little Band of Roving Lovers br who made strangers br the Stars br of little Street Plays br asking br 'Madam who would you like to be br a star? an astronaut, a great leader? br and then they would produce the prop br and act the play br where instantly br the dream would be br and street stranger br would miraculously br become the Dream They Had Dreamed. br while others looked on. br br Singers br bad, good or worse br had the audience to join in br and all songs sound good when sung in crowds. br br For True Love's Wish br they produced a Satin Heart br which they passed round the crowd br where each person gave the heart br a tiny touch; br br assuring that True Love would come br in time to its recipient. br br They were a roving Band of Lovers br Loose on the City Streets. br They were both Real br and Fantasy.
