lyrics

You won't say it but I will
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's gone wrong, gone wrong
I see my life at this standstill
Yeah, yeah, yeah
For so long, so long

All these years for cash and careers
It's fool's gold of the dullest veneer
Well it bought us our valour
And sold us our fear

I never flinch but now I know
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's gone wrong, gone wrong
I've seen my life at this cross-roads
Yeah, yeah, yeah
For so long, so long

Unhappy the man who sticks to the plan
Though two weeks on the Med. have put horns on his head
He went looking for girls, afraid of the woman in his bed

I see it clearly through cut glass
On the rocks
It's gone wrong, gone wrong
I've seen my life at an impasse
On the rocks
For so long, too long

You won't say it but I will
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's gone wrong, gone wrong
I see my life at this standstill
Yeah, yeah, yeah
For so long

Raise your glasses high, it's mud in you eye, we're broken hearted
Here's to absent friends and those still here taken for granted

Raise your glasses high, it's mud in you eye, you? broken hearted
Here's to absent friends and those still here taken for granted
