Lyrics :
You just wanted to be light
To cancel out the shade
And let the darkness pay
For the years you've been away
From him
But now do you see there are two sides
Two faces with two lives
Opposites that divide
You've spent so long denying
You
And now the lifetime that you've spent
Will not be returned to be lived over again
Now you're happy when you're sad
And angry when you're glad
You're tearing up and crying
For the life that's busy dying
To be
But the knife can't cut the blade
Nor the sun shine on itself
It’s a gift you could receive
To see is to believe
To see is to believe
The lifetime that you've spent
Will not be returned to be lived over again
Now we all live for what we have left
But you could be kind kind to yourself
Kind to yourself
The lifetime that you've spent will not be returned
To be lived over again and again
Further on further on mother
Furher on further down the line
Further on further on father
Further on further on time
Further on further on children
Further on further down the line
Further on further on mother
It’s further on further on time
You just wanted to be light
To cancel out the shade
And let the darkness pay
For the years you've been away
From him
But now do you see there are two sides
Two faces with two lives
Opposites that divide
You've spent so long denying
You
And now the lifetime that you've spent
Will not be returned to be lived over again
Now you're happy when you're sad
And angry when you're glad
You're tearing up and crying
For the life that's busy dying
To be
But the knife can't cut the blade
Nor the sun shine on itself
It’s a gift you could receive
To see is to believe
To see is to believe
The lifetime that you've spent
Will not be returned to be lived over again
Now we all live for what we have left
But you could be kind kind to yourself
Kind to yourself
The lifetime that you've spent will not be returned
To be lived over again and again
Further on further on mother
Furher on further down the line
Further on further on father
Further on further on time
Further on further on children
Further on further down the line
Further on further on mother
It’s further on further on time

Piers Faccini France
If my songs were maps I'd want them to stretch from the English moors to the Saharan dunes via the plains of the Mediterranean.
