|
|
They said the hand of God delivered the blow |
|
But all that I know, It wasn't him that nearly killed you |
|
I let you down, I never carried you home |
|
I left you alone, To fend there for yourself |
|
|
|
I see you out sometimes enjoying the square |
|
Your mothers are with faces filled with sadness |
|
For all that you gained, You still look hungry & weak |
|
When I speak, I'll remember where I'm from |
|
|
|
Well, it's a long way back to the medway |
|
It's a long way back to the school |
|
It's a long way back to the Coliseum |
|
When we had faces, Jude |
|
When we had faces, Jude |
|
|
|
I heard they filled your head with story's of joy |
|
Said I could destroy, The good things laid before you |
|
I worked it out, But knew that you would never hear |
|
It's strange how a year, Can cancel out a life |
|
|
|
Well, it's a long way back to the medway |
|
It's a long way back to the school |
|
It's a long way back to the Coliseum |
|
When we had faces, Jude |
|
When we had faces, Jude |
|
|
|
Sometimes I go back, but I never stay |
|
Just wasting away, The world that we grew up in |
|
One day you will see me down on the Street |
|
And when you hear me speak |
|
You'll remember where you're from |
