Lyrics by Shoes
One in Versailles (1975)
Composed by Jeff Murphy
---
You thought that when you left
Some things would pass you by
But many things have waited for
The one in Versailles
You spend your time waitin'
Tippin' glasses with few
But soon you'll be returnin'
There'll be plenty to do
Lotta people sayin'
We were good for a laugh
You were in some country
While our hearts broke in half
We said we're gettin' better
Know we're getting stronger
Now we're gonna show you
What we really can do
