[Pink Floyd cover]Ticking away the momentsThat make up a dull dayFritter and waste the hours in an off hand wayKicking around on a piece of groundIn your hometownWaiting for someone or somethingTo show the wayTired of lying in the sunshineStaying here to watch the rainYou are young and life is longThere's always time to kill todayAnd then one day you'll findTen years have got behind youNo one told you when to runYou missed the starting gunSo you run and you run to catch up with the sunBut it's sinkingRacing around to come up behind you againThe sun is the same in the relative wayBut you're olderShorter of breath and one day closer to deathEvery year is getting shorterSongtexteNever seem to find the timePlans that either come to naughtOr half a page of scribbled linesHanging on in quiet desperationIs the English wayThe time is gone the song is overThought I'd something more to sayHome, home againI like to be here when I canWhen I come home cold and tiredIt's good to warm my bones beside the fireFar away across the fieldThe tolling of the iron bellCalls the faithful to their kneesTo hear the softly spoken magic spell Aus Songtexte Mania
