The girl with the weight of the world in her hands) to be a studio recording – what do you think? this release was originally announced for 1991-11-18 in Music Week, with a cassette version, but was then put back by a week – with the cassette, it seems, dropped from the schedule; there was no 7" single	the CD, showing title “The cherry tree E.P.”

Clare

and over the rooftops when the stars prickle the skies
London is sleeping and the Mississippi moon shines
I hear them making love
I hear them making love

my baby’s love is called Clare
serpentine seductress, I can’t compare
my baby’s love is merciless to me, ba-ba-ba-bam
wailing like a hussy and laughing drunkenly

and over the rooftops when the stars prickle the skies
London is sleeping and the Mississippi moon shines
I hear them making love
I hear them making love

Clare was born in New Orleans, ra-da-da-dam
she grew up in the bars of Bourbon Street
back in the days of Marie Laveau, la-la-la-la
she learnt the ways of that old voodoo

and over the rooftops when the stars prickle the skies
London is sleeping and the Mississippi moon shines
I hear them making love
I hear them making love – ah-ooh

and over the rooftops when the stars prickle the skies
London is sleeping and the Mississippi moon shines
I hear them making love
I hear them making love
I hear them making love
I hear them making love
I hear them making love
I hear hear who-ooh
