lyrics

Tonight, Tomorrow
Taxi lights flash by in the winter rain
Back in my hometown drinking again
The boys of summer
Now men with lives and sadness

Let’s finish these cans on the courthouse steps
This is the place Paul and Mary met
She’s three years dead
He’s two years in Australia

We’ll go to that pub beside the church
Even though seeing that empty stool still hurts
I tried God and drink
In the end both will fail you

Still it’s good to drink with you today
There’ll come a time when life gets in the way
And when we’re gone this town will stand as a stage
We’ll take our bow as the new players come of age

To see the same sad scenes we already seen
The ghosts of big knuckled nuns and long dead priests
Who got to your mind
Before your mind even came to you

You spent your uni years drinking yourself to death
In Liverpool and London they toasted your health
Those days are gone
What are you gonna do?

Start a band, when everyone’s starting a family
Stare at the sea wondering if it took her kindly
Maybe settle down and find a girl
Live a little life on the edge of the world but

Tonight it is hard to see tomorrow

Meet up at the bar, have nothing much to say
So we drink our fill, we embrace and walk away
Stuck in silent desperation with nowhere to turn
On a broken island nation at the edge of the world

Tonight it is hard to see tomorrow

I was born with a silver spoon lodged in my throat. The doctors have no idea how it got there and it was a struggle to get out. They successfully removed it, but took all gravitas from my voice when they did. It was when I saw my beloved spoon, the spoon that that I'd had since birth, thrown into the bin with the half chewed umbilical cord that I knew I wanted to be a singer. ... more
