St. Leonards
This 1970s British progressive rock instrumental opens with expressive Strat-style electric guitar, bending and layering with lush reverb and harmonics. As intensity peaks, the sound transitions to gentle acoustic fingerpicking and slide, tempo falling to 60 bpm, ending with fading acoustic resonance.

Lyrics
He was a sweetheart
With his glasses and his long brown hair
We met on the Ferris wheel
At the St. Leonards summer fayre
My best friend asked him
"How'd you like the ride?"
Said
"I'm not sure yet"
And he looked me right in the eyes
Oh
My love
I will never leave
Oh
My love
You'll never be lonely
I just hope you'll never outgrow me
Met him in the church
It was late December
And it was so damn cold
I barely remember
He said
"I know you
We met at the fayre
I was the one who said that
I liked your hair"
Oh
My love
I will never leave
Oh
My love
You'll never be lonely
I just hope you'll never outgrow me
Oh
My love
I will never leave
Oh
My love
You'll never be lonely
I just hope you'll never outgrow me
