lyrics

They drove on through the fading light
They drove on through the fading light

What they’re looking for aint there anymore,
the places no longer exist

Looking good and going nowhere,
that was the story of our lives
You count the Springs, the Autumns too,
you count the seasons left for you
More behind than up ahead, more behind you now

Her childhood towns all fog and rain,
a past that calls her back again
Her ups and downs and Saturdays,
the rides she’ll never take again

Our England’s gone and so are you
Our England’s gone

You don’t look back or regret it,
the women in and out of your life
Had the years made it better,
all that waking alone in the night?
Wanting you was a habit I was quitting
and quitting again
But I knew that it mattered
and l’d always give in in the end

Her life seemed stopped, her life seemed over,
thirty three last October

I’ve heard it all before you said,
won’t someone put the moon to bed?
More behind than up ahead, more behind you now

Oh you were so unlike the rest,
my North, my South, my East and West
You were so unlike… the rest

Driving down deserted streets,
twilight filled with old defeats

They drove on through the fading light

Emily was left behind to find her way without you
The ones we love are torn from us for no good reason

They drove on through the fading light
I’ll never leave you, that’s what I said
I’ll never leave you

They drove on through the fading light
Won’t someone put the moon to bed?
