The Brigadier: Music/Videos/Lyrics

This, Is Why...

(The Brigadier)
Words and Music by Matt Williams
I walk in the wind behind her
So I can smell her perfume
It's better than the stench of the city streets
Or the fog of the traffic fumes
Oh the world is grey and dirty
So you tend to look away
But when someone you like comes along
It makes you wanna jump and sing a song

This is why love is good
This is why love is good
It makes your dreams come true
This is why love is good
This is why love is good
Now I found you

The world is full of sadness
War and scandal too
ooh I watch the news and see terrible things
And no one seems to know what to do
It makes me want to live in solace
And never ever leave my flat
But then I see a cynical old man
Then I think I never want to end up like that

This is why love is good
This is why love is good
It gives you hope to live
This is why love is good
This is why love is good
You can give

It's good to help the aged
and it's good to help the poor
But you can't forget to help yourself
'Cos then you can give a little bit more

This is why love is good
This is why love is good
It makes you feel good inside
This is why love is good
This is why love is good
You can't hide
