The Gate
In the hope I'll forget I'll wait
It's a chance I'll take oh yeah
In the hope I'll forget I'll wait
For the time
In the spring I'll watch my step
While the night-time passes by
When a smile suits me all alone
I'll be fine
It's a chance I'll take oh yeah
In the hope I'll forget I'll wait
For the time
In the spring I'll watch my step
While the night-time passes by
When a smile suits me all alone
I'll be fine
There's got to be a better song to sing
Before I hang upon your shoulder
Telling the truth it may be bolder this time
There's got to be a better song to sing
That makes a lonely one less cold, oh
Before I hang upon your shoulder and cry
Before I hang upon your shoulder
Telling the truth it may be bolder this time
There's got to be a better song to sing
That makes a lonely one less cold, oh
Before I hang upon your shoulder and cry
Watching friends playing in the dirt
Feeling hard but feeling hurt
By the sadness that wastes my time
It's a crime
Counting acts which I must add
To collect sad memories
From a past I'd soon forget
Swap or leave
There's got to be a better song to sing
Before I hang upon your shoulder
Telling the truth it may be bolder this time
There's got to be a better song to sing
That makes a lonely one less cold oh
Before I hang upon your shoulder and cry
At the gate I'll wave goodbye
To the friends that were my lies
And I'll see them off at dawn
Before I hang upon your shoulder
Telling the truth it may be bolder this time
There's got to be a better song to sing
That makes a lonely one less cold oh
Before I hang upon your shoulder and cry
At the gate I'll wave goodbye
To the friends that were my lies
And I'll see them off at dawn
Feeling wise
Feeling wise
Feeling wise
Feeling wise
Feeling wise
Been walking around Snowdonia this week with two songs in my head - one of them - 'If she wants me' by B and S. I listened to it again last night and it truly is a perfect pop song...
ReplyDeleteSounds fantastic, Mike, must be nice to swap Sodbury for Snowdonia. Stroud's the best I've managed as part of my daily commute... :-)
DeleteTIJAMRS is such a good song, don't recall the B-sides as much.
ReplyDeleteYes, This Is Just A Modern Rock Song was a revelation when I first heard it on the mixtape. I also couldn't believe how long it was (!) though it could have carried on and on for me. I Know Where The Summer Goes & Slow Graffiti make up the rest of the EP and they're all cracking songs, to be honest.
