I followed you foolishly
You were at a smoky bar
you were out til three
Sat alone inside my car
it was nearly four
We were gonna
wait for you all night
So i locked the door
I was gonna spend the night
coulda been okay
We were gonna talk all night
till i went away
Remember how you used to say
can't stay up late
A minute later we're older now
i can't stay awake
I'm driving
by your parent's farm
in the Chevrolet
I remember that rusty car
like it was yesterday
<Interlude>
Saw my brother driving by
the other day
I wished that i'd go out to him
but he drove away
Saw my sister standing there
standing in rain
Then i thought about nothing
that it feels the same
<Interlude>
Another day, come and gone
Don't think
i can ever sing that song
Little secrets we bring along
I'm taking my time
trailing behind
i thought of you
Another day, come and gone
Don't think
i can ever sing that song
Little secrets we bring along
Today is the day
Today is the day i think of you
Another day, come and gone
Don't think
i can ever sing that song
Little secrets we bring along
Today is the day
Today is the day i think of you
cked down
and they put you first in line
And so you finally ask yourself
just how big you are
and take your place in a wiser
world of bigger motor cars
<Intelrude>
So Where the hell was Biggles
when you needed him
last Saturday
And where were all the sportsmen
who always pulled you though
They're all resting down
in Cornwall
writing up their memoirs
for a paper-back edition
of the Boy Scout Manual
See there! A man born
