My name is Ivor

I know him well

He ain't no liar, I ain't either
So let's have a smile for an old engine driver
So let's have a smile for an old engine driver
Please take a sweet (take a sweet)
Come take a walk with me (walk with me)
We’ll sort it out (sort it out)
Back at my place, maybe (back at my place, maybe)

It’ll come right
You ain’t no fool, I ain’t either
So why not be nice to an old engine driver?
Better be nice to an old engine driver

(Cello cello cello cello cello cello cello cello

I can't believe it
Do my eyes deceive me?
Am I back in your arms?
Away from all harm?

[Verse 8]
It's like a dream to be with you again
Can't believe that I'm with you again

I missed you and I must admit
I kissed a few and once did sit
On Ivor the Engine Driver's lap
And later with him, had a nap

You are forgiven, you are forgiven
You are forgiven (you are forgiven)
You are forgiven (you are forgiven)
You are forgiven (you are forgiven)
You are forgiven (you are forgiven)
You are forgiven (you are forgiven)
Forgiven
