Well I met him outside a hostel door
He said I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours
I know you think it's shifty for a man in his fifties
To be sleeping in a hostel dorm
But I used to be a welder by trade
Used to work by the water where the ships get made
But no ship yard will take me now
My hands are too shaky now
And I said David, don't you think it's strange
While you were in a dark room
How the world went and changed
Looking in your eyes, I think you know
That David, we lost you,
Lost you a long time ago
Oh, ooo, oh,ooo
He leans his head against the hostel wall
Said I have an ex-wife that doesn't hear me
And a kid that doesn't call
And every month I'm call short
With my ****ing child support
Cause it was never part of the plan
To be a middle aged man
To be sat outside a hostel,
Shaking stranger's hands
But I've drunk away my wealth now
I'm a picture of bad health
And I'm a shadow of a shadow of a former self
And I said: David, don't you think it's strange
For years you’re walking
And how the world went and changed
I hear it in your voice
I think you know
That David we lost you,
Lost you a long time ago
Oh, ooo, oh,ooo
And I said, David,
Don’t you think that it’s strange
While you were sleeping
How the world went and changed
Looking in your eyes,
I think you know
David, we lost you,
Lost you a long time ago

A feather on the breeze
A ripple on the stream
