How Beautiful You Are

	From the window of our honeymoon,
	the night looks a mite bizarre
	They're burning us in effigy
	and smoke's blotting out the stars
	They're torturing our servants
	by the light of an armoured car
	Please don't ask if it's the end of the line –
	you know I never could see that far
	Tonight I'd rather look at you,
	How beautiful you are
	If they ask you "what are lovers?",
	tell them "lovers are"
	Set against the order,
	we live outside the law
	I'm no hero under torture,
	I'll tell them all I heard and all I saw
	I saw everything in you, my love,
	it seems it's all I ever saw…
	Tonight I see it all anew,
	How beautiful you are
	Pass me the binoculars –
	no, no, leave them where they are
	Don't want my vision magnified,
	I don't need to see that far
	From the window of our honeymoon,
	draw the curtains cross the bars
	Let's spare ourselves that spectacle,
	the problem's theirs not ours
	Tonight I'd rather look at you,
	How beautiful you are
