[02:13.549] |
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day |
[02:20.684] |
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way. |
[02:28.164] |
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town |
[02:35.334] |
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way. |
[02:39.823] |
|
[02:42.584] |
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain. |
[02:50.885] |
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today. |
[02:59.167] |
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you. |
[03:05.314] |
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun. |
[03:17.349] |
|
[04:36.804] |
So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking |
[04:48.168] |
Racing around to come up behind you again. |
[04:54.686] |
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older, |
[05:01.195] |
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death. |
[05:06.604] |
|
[05:08.604] |
Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time. |
[05:16.168] |
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines |
[05:23.195] |
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way |
[05:30.505] |
The time is gone, the song is over, |
[05:34.154] |
Thought I'd something more to say. |
[06:03.887] |
I like to be here, but I can't. |
[06:10.864] |
And when I come home cold and tired |
[06:18.250] |
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire. |
[06:25.734] |
