Good News - Chris Rea

He’s watching the girls on the dance floor

He’s watching the light in her hair

He’s praying that love’s gonna come soon

There’s a sweet smell of hope in the air

Just another boy from a steel town

With the flash of the mill in his eye

He don’t move for hip cool or fashion

But he knows where the deepest one lies

And he’d love to be warm

And he’d love to love you

So give him some good news

All the cards on the table

But don’t look that man in the eye

Say a prayer for the dealer

And kiss your old life goodbye

Go to church light a candle

But don’t lose your head for God’s sake

Why is my heart beating faster

Oh why do my hands start to shake

'Cos he’d love to be warm

And he’d love to love you

So give him some good news
