Louder now, she walks in and I keep casual somehow
Though it’s nothing like that time you vowed
When our ears were to the ground, waiting for alarms to sound
You’d take us somewhere we feel proud; the lights are on and no-one out
Hard to please, it’s said you’ve got a bold sense of charity
But this was really news to me, ‘cos if I’d have known otherwise, I’d have swung the other side; A diamond from a piece of coal? Yeah, what you touch does turn to gold…
Absentee – You strayed away from everyone but me
Appreciate, I really do. But if anything I can’t get through the thought that if he can – I can too. These thoughts that I have won’t subside until the day we ‘meet’ arrives.
The snow, everything you asked for and more - but I won’t be, therefore
I don’t know anymore than you.
I don’t know anymore.
When we’re old, we’ll reap what was sewn, and those we love wont care no more.
