lyrics

Things fade away
into the middle distance
they said it was
a sorry fact of our existence
that always leaves me sitting
in this way
still begging you to stay
plead with you to stay

Cos I wouldn't know what to do
how to live with out you when you're gone
both of us know it's true
we've been this way far too long

Once in a while
I lose sight of the ties that bind us
thos promises, promises
they always seem to find us wanting
and though the gap between us
is a mobile phone
still much unknown and unshown
how could you or I ever know?

Fear claws
and I'm doubtfu as I lie beside the
ghosts of the past
that always seem to linger
I'm not certain
how it ever felt to me at all
it doesn't make sense anymore

(George Holt & Billy Haynes)
