Lyrics:

The Cyclist

The cyclist is out on his own
He's been looking for some road, nobody knows
The glowworms are lighting his way
He's been riding along till the end of the day
So long, so long

The holiday's come and he's gone
With the saddlebags packed he is well on his way
Crossing the marsh as he goes
Heading south for a glimpse of the sea
So long, so long

Where the wild flowers blow in the rain
I will lay my head down for a while
Sleep till it's time to move on
I'll be riding along in your dreams

The following seems to be true
That the more that you love, the more they love you
So long, so long
