Lyrics

Come and take a bitter bite out of this one, I have driven through this town for one last time?Every road is just the same as the last one, every girl and boy will be the same in ten years' time.?

Every street will have a similar fortune - a witness to the broken hearts and loves of the young?and when the fairground comes along in the autumn, the youth will walk the paths that former lovers then had begun.?
?
Give me a rock on which to build my house.

?I'm no longer keeping score on things I have done before, I'm just another one, you're just the other one.?
and if I'm to hold my breathe, then twenty years pass unspent, and I'm just another one, and you're just the other one.??

If I'm writing with a teenage heart now, it means there might be someone wiser with a different view?I'm calling out like the drowned to a lifeboat; 'give me something from a world that's in a different hue!'

It's getting hard to keep my head above water, I thought I saw an island but I can't be sure?panic turned me to an innocent daughter, except I've lost all of the dreams that I had before.???

I feel these words are ten years late as I cast my eyes on familiar birds soaring unknown skies ?
and when I am old and done let the question lie - 'where were you when I was 25???
