lyrics

Remember when you used to have all the rage
Raring to go, the world was your stage
In the wings, a hero in wait
For a big moment that never came
My time had come, potential on tap
All to play for and up for grabs
My life was a gift unwrapped
Then I drove it straight into a cul-de-sac

Know I should be over it all by now
S’posed to take it on your side
Al I know is I’m still nowhere now
I’m running out of time to bide
Think my number’s up
The years are starting to run
Give me the time I had when I was twenty-one

It’s another slow news day
One more day you’ve pissed away
Aimless and shameless, got nothing on
These days I just drift and grift along
Said one more chance, one last punt
Then all my direct debits came at once

Know I’ve really messed up my life now
I took it for one big joy ride
Maybe I can still turn things around
I still have time
Think the game is up
Nowhere left to run
Can we go back to when I was twenty-one?

Give me the time I had
The energy that I had
The confidence, the carelessness
The dreams and plans I had
I know we can’t go back
I should be glad
But give me the days I had when I was twenty-one
