lyrics

Overcast promenade there's not a soul in sight
Walking on the grey sand, echoes of a good time
She turned and said our footprints aren't as deep as all the rest
And it hit me like a tonne of bricks from somewhere in my head
Maybe we should have some more to show by now
Maybe someday we'll have gained that sense of pride
Maybe someday we'll be miles apart
Without a way to talk about the brakes and how they failed to slow us down

I'll take the stars from the night sky
So you can wear them in your eyes
Coz' in the midnight hour darling having you it really lightens up this town
I'll take the stars from the night sky
So you can wear them in your eyes
But the closer I fly babe the further that I fall back down

All my life I've been working towards something
Breaking down the barriers of things unknown
I'm working hard but almost not quite hard enough
And there's always something lurking in the back of her mind
Maybe we should have some more to show by now
Maybe someday we'll have gained that sense of pride
Maybe someday we'll be miles apart
Without a way to talk about the brakes and how they failed to slow us down

I'll take the stars from the night sky
So you can wear them in your eyes
Coz' in the midnight hour darling having you it really lightens up this town
I'll take the stars from the night sky
So you can wear them in your eyes
But the closer I fly babe the further that I fall back down

I remember as a child I used to cry all of the time
Teacher took me to one side said don't you cry anymore
I remember as a child I used to cry all of the time
When my best friend said goodbye said I won't cry anymore
I remember as a child I used to cry all of the time
When my first love broke my heart said I won't cry anymore
I remember as a child I used to cry all of the time
Ever since you walked away I won't cry anymore
I remember as a child playing football in the park
Broken fingers battle scars, not the boy you used to know
I remember as a child getting high on summer nights
Looking through old photographs at people I no longer know
I remember as a child I used to cry all of the time
Ever since my father died I don't cry anymore
I remember as a child I used to cry all of the time
Ever since my father died I don't cry anymore
Said I won't cry anymore
Hey!
Said I won't cry anymore
