Lyrics

[Verse 1] Come on home, there's a hole the size of ancient Rome Come on back, you're giving me a heart attack We are young, running through the fields of life Playing all the games that people play when you see them in the films from yesterday [Chorus 1] Give a chance to the old Set the record straight for the welfare state Give a chance to the young Everyone deserves a life in the sun [Verse 2] Twenty years, I know that's when my love appeared Twenty turns we took together 'round the sun We are old, trekking in the fields of snow Follow in my footsteps, noble page, never fear from time or cold or age [Chorus 1] Give a chance to the old Set the record straight for the welfare state Give a chance to the young Everyone deserves a life in the sun [Bridge 1] I don't care if it's cold outside 'Cause my baby keeps me warm And I don't care what my boss is saying 'Cause I left my mind at home I know you worry 'bout the way we live The things we could have done But if you're loving other people close You will never be alone [Bridge 2] Ba ba ba da, ba ba ba da Ba ba ba da, ba ba ba da I watch, I wait I know that we'll never be together in that way Doesn't stop me wishing, doesn't stop me praying Doesn't stop me wishing, doesn't stop me praying [Verse 3] Come on home, there is room beside me on the throne We are king and queen of might've been, heirs apparent to the scene Come on back, we are racing the eternal track Step for step and toe to toe, I will take your arm and off we go [Chorus 2] We will try to be true Often time corrupts what you thought you knew We will try to be fair If you hide your love it will wither and fade [Chorus 1] Give a chance to the old Set the record straight for the welfare state Give a chance to the young Everyone deserves a life in the sun
