Lyrics:
They said the hand of God delivered the blow
But all that I know, It wasn't him that nearly killed you
I let you down, I never carried you home
I left you alone, To fend there for yourself
I see you out sometimes enjoying the square
The mademoiselles, With faces filled with sadness
For all that you gained, You still remember me
When I speak, I'll remember where I'm from
Well, it's a long way back to the medway
It's a long way back to the school
It's a long way back to the Coliseum
When we had faces too
When we had faces too
I heard they filled your head with story's of joy
Said I could destroy, The good things layed before you
I worked it out, But knew that you would never hear
It's strange how a year, Can cancel out a life time
Well, it's a long way back to the medway
It's a long way back to the school
It's a long way back to the Coliseum
When we had faces too
When we had faces too
Sometimes I go back, but I never stay
Just waisting away, The world that we grew up in
One day you will see me down on the Strand
And when you hear me speak
You'll remember where you're from
