Old Friends

lyrics

Back before the bells rang
Oh, what did we see?
In the bright green light of a summer
A night split open like the sea
Behind doors, by the canals
We would gather round
Keeping our dreams safe and sound

Then all of you would rise for me
Then all of you would rise for me
Then all of you would rise for me

But it’s just the machineries of summertime
It’s just the machineries of summertime
It’s just the machineries of summertime

But freedom wasn’t at all
What we dreamt it up to be
Just a symphony for no one
And a harmless disease
So when the walls where growing closer
Desperation took its toll
You hung your ambitions from a clipon tie
And gave up all control

Then what is left of you and me
Then what is left of you and me
Then what is left of you and me

But it’s just the machineries of summertime
It’s just the machineries of summertime
It’s just the machineries of summertime

No one knows what we could be
No one knows what we could be
No one knows what we could be
