Gurn Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way. Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town Waiting for someone or something to show you the way. Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain. You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today. And then one day you find ten years have got behind you. No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun. So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking Racing around to come up behind you again. The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older, Shorter of breath and one day closer to death. Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time. Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over, Thought I'd something more to say. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

189lb enforcers? Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 After 21 years of marriage, these lyrics still make me squeeze her hand and hold my breath while we drive somewhere. Could be in the midst of a fight, party anything, and it gets me in the belly every time. Love is as slippery as it is rare. Charlie Sexton - Impressed. “Love is gentle, love is kind Doesn't poison baby's wine Isn't jealous or provoked Doesn't quit or give up hope” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
189lb enforcers? Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) The Waterboys. I wish I was a fisherman Tumblin' on the seas Far away from dry land And it's bitter memories Castin' out my sweet line With abandonment and love No ceiling bearin' down on me Save the starry sky above With light in my head With you in my arms I wish I was the brakeman On a hurtlin fevered train Crashin head long into the heartland Like a cannon in the rain With the feelin of the sleepers And the burnin of the coal Countin the towns flashin by And a night that's full of soul With light in my head With you in my arms And I know I will be loosened From the bonds that hold me fast And the chains all around me Will fall away at last And on that grand and fateful day I will take thee in my hand I will ride on a train I will be the fisherman With light in my head You in my arms Light in my head You in my arms Light in my head You With light in my head You in my arms Edited September 7, 2019 by 189lb enforcers? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
