Green And Grey - New Model Army[00:00:00]
Written by:Jason Harris/Justin Sullivan/Rob Heaton/Robert Heaton[00:00:00]
The time I think most clearly[00:00:23]
The time I drift away[00:00:28]
Is on the bus ride that meanders[00:00:31]
Up these valleys of green and grey[00:00:36]
I get to think about what might have been[00:00:41]
And what may yet come true[00:00:45]
And I get to pass the rainy mile[00:00:49]
Thinking of you[00:00:55]
And all the while all the while[00:00:59]
I still hear that call[00:01:03]
To the land of gold and poison[00:01:07]
That beckons to us all[00:01:12]
Nothing changes here very much[00:01:17]
You used to say it never will[00:01:21]
The pubs are all full on Friday nights[00:01:25]
And things get started still[00:01:30]
We spent hours last week with Billy boy[00:01:33]
Bleeding yeah queuing in Casualty[00:01:37]
Staring at those posters we used to laugh at[00:01:43]
Never never land palm trees by the sea[00:01:46]
Well there was no need[00:01:51]
For those guys to hurt him so bad[00:01:53]
When all they had to do was knock him down[00:01:55]
But no one asks too many questions like[00:02:00]
Thats any more[00:02:03]
Since you left this town[00:02:05]
And tomorrow brings another train[00:02:09]
Another young brave steals away[00:02:13]
But you're the one I remember[00:02:18]
From these valleys of[00:02:22]
The green and the grey[00:02:24]
You used to talk about winners[00:02:33]
And losers all the time[00:02:34]
As if that was all there was[00:02:36]
As if we were not of the same blood family[00:02:40]
As if we live by different laws[00:02:45]
Do you owe so much less to[00:02:49]
These rain swept hills[00:02:51]
Than you owe to your good self[00:02:54]
Is it true that the world[00:02:58]
Has always got to be something[00:02:59]
That seems to happen somewhere else[00:03:01]
For God's sake don't you realize[00:03:07]
That I still hear that call[00:03:11]
Do you think you're so brave[00:03:15]
Just to go running[00:03:18]
To that which beckons to us all[00:03:20]
And tomorrow brings another train[00:03:24]
Another young brave steals away[00:03:29]
But you're the one I remember[00:03:34]
From these valleys of[00:03:37]
The green and the grey[00:03:39]
No not for one second[00:04:01]
Did you look behind you[00:04:06]
As you were walking away[00:04:09]
Never once did you wish any of us well[00:04:13]
Those who had chosen to stay[00:04:18]
And if that's what it takes to make it[00:04:22]
In the place that you live today[00:04:26]
Then I guess you'll never read[00:04:30]
These letters that I send[00:04:32]
From the valleys of green and the grey[00:04:35]
Valleys green grey[00:04:42]
