Lyrics

Is there a time for keep ing a dis tance,

a time to turn your eyes a way?

Is there a time for keep ing your head down, dif f’rent for ting find it on with your day?

Is there a time for kohl and lip stick,

a time for curl ing hair?

Is there a time for high street shop ping is there to find to be the right dress to wear?

Here she comes.

Beau Heads ty turn a round.

Here she comes

to (G#m)take her crown.

Is there a time

to run for a cov er,

a time to turn for kiss and tell?

Is there a time

for dif f’rent your col ors, dif f’rent for you find it hard with to spell?

Is there a time

for first com mun ion,

a time

for east sev en

Is there a time

to turn to mec ca, is there a find to be a beau ty to queen?

Here she comes.

Beau Heads ty plays the clown.

Here she comes,

sur (G#m)take her crown.

Is there a time real in her crown.

Di ci che fiu me,

tro va la (B)vi a al ma re.

E come il fiu me

giun ge ra i a me.

Ol tre con (F#m7)fi ni,

e le ter re as se (B)ta te.

Di ci che (F#m7)co me fiu me

co me fiu me

l’a (E)mo

re (F#m7)giun ger a,

l’a (E)mo

(F#m7)re.

E non so pi pre gare.

E nell’ a mo re

non so pi spe (B)ra re.

E quell’ a (F#m7)mo re,

E non so pi a spet (B)ta re.

Is there a time

for ty ing rib bons,

a time

for Christ mas trees?

Is there a time

for lay ing ta bles when the night

is set to freeze?
