I'm sick of people telling me How to live my life They say that I should go out Every bloody night With a beer in my right hand And a vodka in my left But I'd rather still remember Why I've got my student debt And just because I like to work I'm not a boring arse And if I stay at home I'm not as cool as you are You might like to think That you're a shining star But I'd rather watch Bridget Jones' Diary Than fuck around in bars I don't resort to ready meals I cook my food from scratch I'm not Gordon Ramsay But I'm quite alright with that I'm happy writing songs Just me and my guitar and maybe if I'm lucky That'll take me pretty far And just because I like to work I'm not a boring arse And if I stay at home I'm not as cool as you are You might like to think That you're a shining star But I'd rather watch Bridget Jones' Diary Than fuck around in bars And hopefully when I graduate I'll end up with a first But I don't really mind If I do a little worse But one thing is for certain In this ever-changing world I'll have to work at Dixon's If I finish with a third And just because I like to work I'm not a boring arse And if I stay at home I'm not as cool as you are You might like to think That you're a shining star But I'd rather watch Bridget Jones' Diary Than fuck around in bars

There was a time we would play in the sand a time when we were free anyone could walk hand in hand with pride and dignity We could fall, we could run We could become anyone We could be whatever we sought to be But since then times have changed we have gone our separate ways we have left that whole world behind just a moment in time you used to wait for me at school wait by the tree where we'd create a universe just from fantasy We would laugh until the sun went down and night was on the cusp when we would run back to home before it turned to dusk But since then times have changed we have gone our separate ways we have left that whole world behind just a moment in time And if I could turn back that way even just for a day I'd run straight back to you and we'd be kids until that day is through But sadly that is not the case we've already won that race we left all the other cars behind just a moment in time But since then times have changed we have gone our separate ways we have left that whole world behind just a moment in time

That look in your eyes It dances just like fireflies Who rest upon a tree Lighting you and me I'm lost inside my mind With you by my side I'll hold you in my arms Protect you from harm And just like fallen angels Who need to be saved All you need's a hero Here come the brave Here come the brave Together we'll be faster We'll run from the flames We'll keep on moving forward Day after day And just like fallen angels Who need to be saved All you need's a hero Here come the brave Here come the brave And so the future's clear now It is me who must be saved You are my fallen angel You'll carry me away

Just A Dream 03:08
Oh When I was just a young boy We fell in love We fell in love When you were just a young girl We fell in love We fell in love Back then it seemed we were king and queen But now I know that was just a dream Do you remember when we first met The lights were up The stage was set Your stars crossed with mine and we both knew We saw the signs Back then it seemed we were king and queen But now I know that was just a dream And all those nights that we spent together When it was only you and I We used to think that They could last forever But even clocks run out of time Back then it seemed we were king and queen But now I know that was just a dream Back then it seemed we were king and queen But now I know that was just a dream

Miner's Day 04:30
He's got toe capped boots and a lion's heart A wife and kids, for them he'd starve He works all night and he works all day But what does he get? Just minimum pay And soon will be the miner's day We wont move when we want to stay Soon will be the miner's day Better life, better pay Come on boys gather round We'll stay rooted underground They'll push us left, they'll push us right They'll push us till we have to fight Soon will be the miner's day We wont move when we want to stay Soon will be the miner's day Better life, better pay Don't lose the hope, don't lose the fire Don't lost the people we inspire Don't do it for me, do it for them For the wife and for the bairns And soon will be the miner's day We wont move when we want to stay Soon will be the miner's day Better life, better pay They'll hear us boys now don't you fret We will get what we expect They'll hear us boys now don't you fret We will get what we expect And soon will be the miner's day We wont move when we want to stay Soon will be the miner's day Better life, better pay Soon will be the miner's day We wont move when we want to stay Soon will be the miner's day Better life, better pay

Home 05:11
Walking through the hills Feel the winter breathing Feel the winter Chill And a bird sings in the silence a call both loud and shrill And Im home Oh lord I am home See the moonlit beaches as the tide comes in We’ll take our clothes of and then we’ll swim I feel it to my bones But that’s okay because I know Im home Oh lord I am home I am home Oh lord I am home I miss the way you call my name How it whispers in the wind And I'm sorry I lost my way But I'm a Geordie boy, that won’t change Now Im home Oh lord I am home A-ooooooh A-ooooooh Now Im home Oh lord I am home I am home Oh lord I am home
