Story Behind The Song
Story about the Cockney women friends I made in London during the late 1970s. I extrapulated it into "love", rather than friendship. It really means I wouldn't forget them when I returned to Austrlia.

Lyrics
COCKNEY WOMAN
Every stone will turned to sand, and blow across this lonesome land.
I've been so reckless in the past, the only speed I've had is fast.
Cockney woman, it's such a blast, this time the love is gonna last.
Cockney woman, no need to ask, this time the love is gonna last.
How can love be so cruel? At least I'm not the only fool.
Love flies like shadows on the wall, without the light you've got nothin' at all.
I don't suppose you believe me, but some times love can deceive me,
I think I've got it in for sure, but I look and it's not there anymore!
Every night will turn to day, and every sunny sky turn to grey.
There is no changing your destiny, so just accept whatever must be.
Cockney woman, it's such a blast, this time the love is gonna last.
Cockney woman, no need to ask, this time the love is gonna last.
Yes, Cockney woman, it's such a blast,
This time the love, this time the love, this time the love is gonna last.
