The New Dawn
He lived in a small café on Whitworth Street
That's where he kept his dreams
But now he's selling up and moving on
To chase some other schemes
But I see myself in his eyes
Wragby Road is just a memory to me
Though to my friends it's real enough
I can't go back that way or so it seems
I left behind all that kind of stuff
But I see myself their eyes
Remember all the things we went through together
The laughter and the pain and the stormy weather
And the times we cried
This old airstrip still makes me sad
Because it holds all my memories of you
It's getting to feel like memories were all I ever had
Still I guess they'll have to do
Because I see myself in your eyes
Always trying to find a new dawn in the sunrise
And the hurt and pain always come as such a surprise
Because the new dawn never arrives
That's where he kept his dreams
But now he's selling up and moving on
To chase some other schemes
But I see myself in his eyes
Wragby Road is just a memory to me
Though to my friends it's real enough
I can't go back that way or so it seems
I left behind all that kind of stuff
But I see myself their eyes
Remember all the things we went through together
The laughter and the pain and the stormy weather
And the times we cried
This old airstrip still makes me sad
Because it holds all my memories of you
It's getting to feel like memories were all I ever had
Still I guess they'll have to do
Because I see myself in your eyes
Always trying to find a new dawn in the sunrise
And the hurt and pain always come as such a surprise
Because the new dawn never arrives
