happy days and auld lang syne - richard thompson lyrics

Loading...

he said, dear, i’m leaving, right there in the hallway
as the party roared on all around
and her head wouldn’t turn, o she couldn’t look at him
in a whirlpool she quietly drowned
and she said to herself, i won’t cry, i won’t grieve
but i’ll laugh and i’ll flow with the wine
with the fast love of strangers we’ll sing sweet bye and bye
happy days and auld lang syne

how i wish i knew
all the old songs they’re singing
such comfort they’re bringing
to a heart that’s as empty as mine
o it lifts you so high
does the sweet bye and bye
happy days and auld lang syne

and she said, i’ll be wearing my smile like a mask
and i’ll care for each stranger i kiss
and no-one will know that i’m wounded and cheated
so close to my moment of bliss
and sometimes you never connect with a song
till it’s telling the way that you feel
putting words to your story, all the pain and the glory
how can it be written so real

how i wish i knew
all the old songs they’re singing
such comfort they’re bringing
to a heart that’s as empty as mine
o it lifts you so high
does the sweet bye and bye
happy days and auld lang syne
