[00:02.200]
[02:16.900]Ticking away the moments
[02:21.120]That make up a dull day
[02:26.010]Fritter and waste the hours
[02:28.380]In an off-hand way
[02:33.390]Kicking around on a piece of ground
[02:36.600]In your home town
[02:40.540]Waiting for someone or something
[02:43.140]To show you the way
[02:48.020]Tired of lying in the sunshine
[02:51.640]Staying home to watch the rain
[02:55.570]You are young and life is long
[02:58.610]
[02:59.240]And there is time to kill today
[03:03.550]And then the one day you find
[03:06.310]
[03:07.310]Ten years have got behind you
[03:10.570]No one told you when to run
[03:14.280]You missed the starting gun
[04:44.700]And you run and you run
[04:46.340]To catch up with the sun
[04:48.130]But it's sinking
[04:52.350]Racing around
[04:52.770]To come up behind you again
[04:59.280]The sun is the same
[05:00.780]In a relative way
[05:02.310]But you're older
[05:06.400]Shorter of breath
[05:08.100]And one day closer to death
[05:13.680]Every year is getting shorter
[05:17.030]Never seem to find the time
[05:20.760]Plans that either come to naught
[05:24.380]Or half a page of scribbled lines
[05:28.390]Hanging on in quiet desperation
[05:30.940]
[05:33.040]Is the English way
[05:35.860]The time is gone
[05:37.730]The song is over
[05:39.560]Thought I'd something more to say
[06:00.700]Home
[06:02.590]Home again
[06:08.040]I like to be here
[06:10.810]When I can
[06:16.120]When I come home
[06:18.500]Cold and tired
[06:23.210]It's good to warm my bones
[06:25.580]Beside the fire
[06:31.020]Far away
[06:32.870]Across the field
[06:34.120]
[06:35.110]Tolling on the iron bell
[06:38.910]Calls the faithful to their knees
[06:43.230]To hear the softly spoken magic spell...
