[02:31.420] |
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day |
[02:38.690] |
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way. |
[02:46.170] |
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town |
[02:53.340] |
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way. |
[02:57.829] |
|
[03:00.590] |
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain. |
[03:08.0] |
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today. |
[03:16.300] |
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you. |
[03:23.320] |
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun. |
[03:34.500] |
|
[04:54.810] |
So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking |
[05:05.300] |
Racing around to come up behind you again. |
[05:11.980] |
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older, |
[05:19.200] |
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death. |
[05:24.610] |
|
[05:26.610] |
Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time. |
[05:33.300] |
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines |
[05:41.200] |
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way |
[05:48.510] |
The time is gone, the song is over, |
[05:52.159] |
Thought I'd something more to say. |
[06:06.470] |
|
[06:20.920] |
I like to be here, but I can't. |
[06:28.870] |
When I come home already tired. |
[06:35.490] |
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire |
[06:30.96] |
Far away across the field |
[06:34.79] |
The tolling of the iron bell |
[06:39.08] |
Calls the faithful to their knees |
[06:42.88] |
To hear the softly spoken magic spells |
