Took a drink from the bottle in my coat I can smell it now like it was yesterday The cold November winds biting round those Bradford streets Going downtown to the club where your band used to play Well the years go by, and the choices come We fall by the wayside one by one Ch: And there's nobody left but you now There's nobody left but you Stevie he was always just the quiet one Got married, got buried the way that people do Came back ten years later, tried to make up he was still young
With all the d** and the girls and the stuff he thought he should have had But you, your monsters became your friends And you'll carry them with you till the bitter end Ch: And there's nobody left but you now . . . Only you, only you Somehow you survived, well I don't know how And you still burn the same, maybe a little slower now You remember the winter of '79 and going down in the rain to the Royal Standard to watch the Ruts play?
