Wings of a Dove
Madness Lyrics
Take time for your pleasure
and laugh with love
take the hand of another
and sing for the wings of a dove
Whoa whoa for the wings of a dove (x2)
Look up at the rooftops
when you're walking round
don't think for a moment
Whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah
for the wings of a dove
whoa whoa for the wings of a dove (x3)
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Look up at the rooftops
When you're walking round
don't think for a moment
of looking down
A room at the top
where we're not allowed
don't cheer to the echo
can you hear the sound
Whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah
for the wings of a dove
Whoa whoa yeah yeah yeah
for the wings of a dove
whoa whoa for the wings of a dove (x2)
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah (x3)
Whoa whoa for the wings of a dove (x4)

I miss old London so much

@Paul Donnelly Imagine not realising music from other places enriches culture rather than erasing it... or that without immigration from the West Indies Madness would have been just another forgettable post-punk pub band that faded into obscurity. You moron. Also, London has been ruined by unchecked capitalism, gentrification and greed, not people from other places.

@Coffee Arts What? So your idea is to allow the country's capitol to be overrun by immigrants thereby robbing the BRITISH of their cultural history!
Are they the modern generation you talk of, the illegal and legal immigrants?
Alan Smith
This band wrote really good clever songs
I think they are underappreciated
