Do not go gentle into that good night...

lyrics

A LITTLE GREYER

DO YOU REMEMBER ME, I’M THE GUY YOU USED TO SEE
HANGING AROUND AT THE BACK OF GIGS IN 1983
NOW TIME HAS FLOWN AND THINGS HAVE CHANGED
I CAN’T EVEN REMEMBER THE BAND’S NAME

YES IT’S THE SAME OLD YOU, IT’S TRUE
YES IT’S THE SAME OLD ME, IT SEEMS
LOOKS LIKE WE’RE BOTH A LITTLE GREYER THESE DAYS
WHAT WILL BE WILL BE
A LITTLE GREYER

I NEVER THOUGHT WE’D GET OUT OF THOSE PROVINCIAL TOWNS
NEVER GET PAST THE DEAD END JOBS, NEVER TURN IT AROUND
BUT WE GOT THE LAST TRAIN OUT, NEVER EVER LOST SIGHT
SO HERE WE STAND STARING AT THE YEARS WE LEFT BEHIND

I MISSED YOUR SECOND WIFE YOU MISSED MY THIRD...

MAYBE IT’S JUST HISTORY, MAYBE THE HANDS OF TIME
BUT I CAN SEE PAST THE GREYING HAIR, THE WRINKLE LINES
IT’S LIKE WATCHING MY OWN LIFE FADING SLOWLY AWAY
BUT THERE’S ALWAYS THE LIGHT IN THE EYES, NEVER LET IT FADE

about

trailer star Nottingham, UK

It’s hard going at times but glory can come from misery. The fragility and the feeling of being on the edge of toppling over is balanced by the skeletal beauty of the songs.
Paul Kerr - Blabber n' Smoke
