Time

Roller skates and bumblebees
holding hands and grazing knees
dressing up and falling down
paul and mike are coming round
being good to stay up late
forget to shut the garden gate
built a house up in a tree
been making plans since I was three
time catches everyone
and the world goes round the sun
and the memory lives on in my heart
going back to the start
skiving french and stealing mars
hanging out in rosie's bar
getting changed straight after school
smoking fags and playing pool
rainbow coming over me
but i like graham connelly
getting caught in someone's car
this time kid you've gone too far
time catches everyone
and the world goes round the sun
but the memory lives on in my heart
going back to the start
forever forever forever
up and down to liverpool
learning lines to play the fool
hanging out at hannah's bar
got too drunk to drive the car
even though i'd love to stay
it's time to work not to time to play
and even though you're now for me
soon you'll be a memory
time catches everyone
and the world goes round the sun
and the memory lives on in my heart
time catches everyone
and the world goes round the sun
and the memory lives on in my heart
going back to the start
forever forever forever
