Wood Green

She doesn't live in Wood Green anymore,
She doesn't recognise the quiet streets,
She walks around the garden in the clothes her mother wore
She doesn't live in Wood Green anymore.
She doesn't see her family anymore,
She doesn't stay in touch with her old friends,
She's trying to hold the memory but it's not worth fighting for
She doesn't see her family anymore.
She's going round in circles again,
she's going round in circles again.
She doesn't put the news on anymore,
The faces and the voices leave her cold
She's tired of speculation on what the future has in store,
She doesn't put the news on anymore.
She can't believe it's happening again,
She can't believe it's happening again.
She doesn't know her neighbours anymore,
The Hendersons moved out before the war,
She knows it used to be the house with flowers round the door
She doesn't live in Wood Green anymore.
She's going round in circles again,
She's going round in circles again,
She can't believe it's happening again..
She doesn't live in Wood Green anymore.

Another Country Song

The last thing the world needs is another country song
Another tale of heartbreak and bad news
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em, so you might as well sing along
And you might just kick those lonesome country blues.
I'm not going to tell you the story of my life
All the places that I've been and folks I've met
How my cousin twice removed became my girlfriend's second wife
Can't remember what I'm drinking to forget.
Well the wind still blows and the rain still falls
And the mournful pedal steel still roams the range
And the bluegrass fiddle dances throwing shadows on the wall
You know it's strange – it's very strange
The last thing the world needs is another country song
Another tale of heartbreak and bad news
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em, so you might as well sing along
And you might just kick those lonesome country blues.
I'm not going to sing about the lies that I've been told
And all the loves I've lost and left behind
The days were hard and long and the nights were dark and cold
And memories were the last thing on my mind.
Well the sun went down and we watched the stars
And I promised not to leave you here alone
But the hippies and the rednecks are still fighting in the bars
I'm heading home – I'm heading home
The last thing the world needs is another country song
Another tale of heartbreak and bad news
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em, so you might as well sing along
And you might just kick those lonesome country blues.

It was just another morning on a bright late autumn day
until it turned into the night when I met you
I was waiting at the station for a train that never came
Then another one pulled into platform two.
You said you thought I looked familiar, I could tell you'd understand the way I felt
We decided that the Cabernet might need a little help -
That wine won't drink itself
Felt like I'd known you all my life, the night was clear and cold
We were sitting outside smoking in the yard
By the time the sun came up we felt like we could fly
If you weren't so high you wouldn't fall so hard.
But we were happy to be breathing,
Every little thing made so much sense,
We talked and put the world to rights till there was nothing left -
That wine won't drink itself
I remember when we heard the news, another good man gone
I'd forgotten how it feels to lose a friend
I'd like to think we'll meet again somewhere on down the line
But you believe the end is just the end.
I know you'll stay until the wake is over, you didn't even notice when I left
Still it would be a crying shame to leave it on the shelf -
That wine won't drink itself.
When I found you gone I told myself I didn't care
Now I'm deleting all your pictures on my phone
You said we've both moved on and changed but I'm not sure that's true
And I can feel my heart is sinking like a stone.
But there's no wall around your future, as the ice around your past begins to melt
And I don't mind if you share a glass or two with someone else -
But that wine won't drink itself, No that wine won't drink itself.
