boscombe promenade

put a letter in a box as stars were watching over me
drowning, caught with my old thoughts
and the shadows in between
it’s easy to write to you now
as I am a world away
as I listen to sweet sounds along boscombe promenade

do you remember anything about me?
the tales I told you when you were fifteen?
I need to cry out and tell you that unlike you
well, I still remember everything about you
I don’t know about your life
I just hope you’re doing fine
so goodnight, you and your sweet eyes

I could write a million words
cos tonight I’m in the mood
against all the odds, I’m still someone good
and I can see a time when I won’t feel pain anymore
for now I watch this sight
and I feel like I’m at home

if I had time to buy I would burn my borrowed flags
and turn
and catch a one way flight to the kingdom of fife
where I once knew the only flag that matters
white and blue
but I’m faraway from home
I’m far from home
far from home
