Fifteen Years
Lyricist:Mark Chadwick, Jeremy Cunningham, Simon Friend, Charles Heather, Jonathan Sevink
I never was a violent man Said the man in the bar with his head in his hands He's trying his best to understand the 'cause of his dismay But the years of gin have broken him They've left him cold where he's fitted in But it's too late now to turn around and find another way
And the lights in the late night lock-in Have faded away when he gets in The girl from fifteen years ago Has packed and gone away
That's never how it used to be, what happened to all that energy You took one too many liberties, I'm tired of being afraid So after the fight she took flight hiding swollen eyes and a wounded pride The best years of her life denied is sold for liquid shares
And the lights in the late night lock-in Have faded away when he gets in The girl from fifteen years ago Has packed and gone away
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And the victims of their world Are advertised on posters Just a beach and a pretty girl You just take this potion
It's another week till his check comes through He's got a fiver left to spend on food The doors of the bar are open and he breaks another rule But he sits on the stool that bears his name He's got a favorite glass an' is called the same He's never been kept waiting, 'cause he pays the landlord's wage
And the lights in the late night lock-in Have faded away when he gets in The girl from fifteen years ago Has packed and gone away
The lights in the late night lock-in Have faded away when he gets in The girl from fifteen years ago Has packed and gone away
