Lyrics

LONG HONEYMOON

swim to the light toward the life worth living
know that this life, gives back what it?s been given

well I knew you Da? when he drank too much and played guitar in taverns
and I knew you Ma before she knew that love would tear her heart to tatters
it?s been a warm summer day but it?s over

and I knew it all when I had shite for brains and comments for all seasons
and I couldn?t fail though I had enemies and pockets full of reasons
it?s been a long honey moon but it?s over all too soon
it?s been a long honeymoon but it?s over

what do you do when the truth packs up its bags and moves to Brooklyn ?
what do you do when the fat girl starts to hum ?
what do you do when Roy G. Biv is black and white and Andy Gibb?s on VH1 ?

well I knew you all in a different time that none of you remember
and each of us has changed but each fire of old has left a burning ember
it?s been a long journey?s end into wintertime, my friend
it?s been a long honeymoon but it?s over

swim to the light and you will be forgiven
know that this life is only just beginning
