Like children in a foreign family

about

Recorded at the Ranch Studio in Liverpool and in Phil's bedroom. Mastered by Donal Whelan at Hafod.

lyrics

When you're old and grey I will comfort you,
I will be the missing category you seek.
And you'll know my name and you'll know it's true,
I just want to be the highlight of your week.

Come around and we'll watch some crap tv.
It doesn't matter just as long as you're with me,
we can be like children in a foreign family.
In our own society,
our bones are older than the trees.

When your mind is gone I will mop it up,
I will be your cleaner and your confidant.
I will rescue you from the hands of time
and we'll wind them back to when you knew your mind.

As we live and learn so we learn to live.
It gets harder but as long as you're with me
we can be like children in a foreign family
and your memory will come back some sunny day you'll see.

She'll come back some sunny day you'll see.
She'll come back some sunny day to me.

One more year goes by and we're still the same.
Nothing changes when there's no-one here to blame.
We will always be separated from
this reality just as long as you're with me.

Just as long as you're with me.
