They clashed by the dozen
A team, a captain
The sun straight on their beautiful profiles
Proudly tired and short of breath
Who wants these hours to return?
Who wants these hours to return?
And hail beneath my skin
Like the thoughts that we untangle
Re-creation from the bottom of my heart
Is it since I ran away from the crowd?
Who wants these hours to return?
Who wants these hours to return?
I'm forever what's her face, ever, ever
Ever, ever, ever, ever
Ever, ever, ever, ever
Eyes closed, doors shut, ever, ever
Ever, ever, ever ever
Ever, ever, ever, ever
She never remembered
And my name was forgotten
Two or three nicknames invented for mockery
I'm the kid who went off to write
And that's why I can't make it [tonight]
And that's why I can't make it [tonight]
Because they had that appeal
The health that got away from me
There, all the way at the back, a dreamer who runs
There, all the way at the back, a dreamer who runs
Who wants these hours to return?
Who wants these hours to return?
I'm forever what's her face, ever, ever
Ever, ever, ever, ever
Ever, ever, ever, ever
Eyes closed, doors shut, ever, ever
Ever, ever, ever ever
Ever, ever, ever, ever
Ever, ever, ever
Ever, ever, ever
Ever, ever, ever
Ever, ever, ever
Ever, ever, ever
