Livingston Taylor Louie Is Blowing The World Away Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The moon threw a shadow on Mulberry Hill
They're welcome to leave but nobody will
The moment was crystal, the evening was still
When those broad teeth took to the stage

Tap set aside a one and a two
It's high sea and civilisation is through
You've heard it before but it all sounds brand new
The sound's gonna be the rage

[Chorus]
Louie is blowing
Louie is blowing
Louie is blowing the world away

[Verse 2]
Prisoners taking slaves to the swing
Covered a bell and it started to ring
I had forgotten to feel these things
How to reach out and touch the sky Now George and Lucinda look at the face
Different but definitely into one place
Honesty, empathy, sympathy, grace
I never thought I'd get so high

[Chorus]
Louie is blowing
Louie is blowing
Louie is blowing the world away

[Bridge]
Now everybody's cool, they're all in school
And they're keeping emotion away
And the band gets hot, the pressure vows pop
The cop's on the spot 'cause that nonstop band can play

[Chorus]
Louie is blowing
Louie is blowing
Louie is blowing the world away
Louie is blowing the world away
