Story Behind the Song
The song was written in India and England. It was recorded on two days; the first recording acoustic guitar and lead vocal, the second to overdub the band using a four track tape machine.
Lyrics
INDIA
by Spiggy Topes
VERSE 1
India, India, take me to your heart
Reveal your ancient mysteries to me
I'm searching for an answer, but somewhere deep inside
I know I'll never find it here, it's already in my mind.
VERSE 2
India, India, listen to my plea
I sit here at your feet so patiently.
I'm waiting by the river, but somewhere in my mind
I left my heart in England with the girl I left behind.
CHORUS
I've got to follow my heart wherever it takes me.
I've got to follow my heart whenever it calls to me.
I've got to follow my heart and my heart is going home.
VERSE 3
India, India, hold me in your arms,
Unfold the wonders of this world to me.
I've waited here forever, running round my head.
There's nowhere left to turn to now,
It's already all been said.
Rpt CHORUS x2
