Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
\nYou fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.
\nKicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
\nWaiting for someone or something to show you the way.<\/p>\n
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.
\nYou are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.
\nAnd then one day you find ten years have got behind you.
\nNo one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.<\/p>\n
So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it’s sinking
\nRacing around to come up behind you again.
\nThe sun is the same in a relative way but you’re older,
\nShorter of breath and one day closer to death.<\/p>\n
Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.
\nPlans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
\nHanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
\nThe time is gone, the song is over,
\nThought I’d something more to say.<\/p>\n
Home, home again
\nI like to be here when I can
\nAnd when I come home cold and tired
\nIt’s good to warm my bones beside the fire
\nFar away across the field
\nThe tolling of the iron bell
\nCalls the faithful to their knees
\nTo hear the softly spoken magic spells.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
