David

Capo VI Intro: x3 Verse: I met him outside a hostel door He said I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours I know you think it's shifty for a man in his fifties to be sleeping in a hostel dorm But I used to be a welder by trade Used to work by the water where the ships get made But no shipyard will take me now My hands are too shaky now I've spend all my money before I get paid And I said David, don't you think it's strange While you were in your dark room How the world went and changed Looking in your eyes, I think you know That David, we lost you, lost you a long time ago Interlude: x3 Ooh, ooh, oh, oh Verse: He leans his head against the hostel wall Said I have an ex-wife that doesn't hear me And a kid that doesn't call And every month I'm caught short With my fucking child support And the court says that I'm reckless and irresponsible 'Cause it was never part of the plan To be a middle aged man To be sat outside a hostel, shaking strangers' hands But I've drunk away my wealth And I'm a picture of bad health And I'm a shadow of a shadow of a former self And I said David, don't you think it's strange For years you were walking And how the world went and changed I hear it in your voice, I think you know That David, we lost you, lost you a long time ago Interlude: x7 Ooh, ooh, oh, oh And I said David, don't you think it's strange While you were sleeping How the world went and changed Looking in your eyes, I think you know That David, we lost you, lost you a long time ago
