It took us four days to find this place   And three months to leave again   We had more time than money or sense   When we took the Germany train   And we sang that night in a doorway of light   Christ, it must have been a sight to see   Living life in three part harmony, harmony      Three o'clock and my throat was dry   When I first heard the lady sing   The rose in her hair was the price of a song   She wore it like a wedding ring   And I could hear her voice   In the cathedral square   Sometimes I hear it across the sea   And dream of life in three part harmony, harmony      She told me of all the places she'd seen   She'd love to see old London town   She thought it best to keep running away   Instead of turning round   You know the reason took two summers to tell   A child that died before it came to be   She never sang in three part harmony, harmony      Harmony, we're living in harmony   Harmony, we're living in harmony      Some people said, go back to your own   Some people begged us to stay   Everybody loved the songs   But nobody wanted to pay   There was a travelling man with a child on his back   So tired he could hardly see   He stopped and sang in three part harmony, harmony      It took five years of the young man's life   Raising horses he never could own   He said it's worth the going away   Just to know it's time to go home   He used to dream she'd wait for him   Then he faced reality   He stopped and sang in three part harmony, harmony      Harmony, we're living in harmony   Harmony, we're living in harmony
