Tekst piosenki
This is the place where my childhood stood Al Airfix glue and balsa wood But you can barely trace the outline of it now A myth of England lost for good Beneath the Sherlock Holmes and Robin Hoods But we'll be swimming in nostalgia till we drown Somewhere between then and now We killed and ate our sacred cow's And nothing seems the same somehow It all just slipped away The future that seemed crystal clear Got stuck in time and disappeared We watched an era ending here when Stevie went away When all the dreaming turns to dust And time has made a fool of us Till I don't know if to laugh or if to cry As one more hero betrays our trust That Georgie Best in each of us Limps back to the changing rooms to die Somewhere between then and now We killed and ate our sacred cow's And nothing seems the same somehow It all just slipped away The future that seemed crystal clear Got stuck in time and disappeared We watched an era ending here when Stevie went away Well there goes the punch line to God's big joke The World we'd set to conquer is just another puff of smoke It's just a speck on the horizon, just a childish memory looks like I lost my sense of humour and my sense of irony Somewhere between then and now
