| [02:21.908] |
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day |
| [02:29.198] |
Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way |
| [02:36.612] |
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown |
| [02:43.939] |
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way |
| [02:51.190] |
Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain |
| [02:58.707] |
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today |
| [03:06.691] |
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you |
| [03:13.843] |
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun |
| [03:24.412] |
|
| [04:47.713] |
And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking |
| [04:55.507] |
Racing around to come up behind you again |
| [05:02.484] |
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older |
| [05:09.577] |
Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death |
| [05:16.879] |
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time |
| [05:24.137] |
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines |
| [05:31.529] |
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way |
| [05:39.034] |
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say |
| [05:50.029] |
|
| [06:03.811] |
Home, home again |
| [06:11.206] |
I like to be here when I can |
| [06:19.091] |
And when I come home cold and tired |
| [06:26.261] |
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire |
| [06:34.220] |
Far away across the field |
| [06:38.103] |
The tolling of the iron bell |
| [06:42.352] |
Calls the faithful to their knees |
| [06:46.150] |
To hear the softly spoken magic spells |
