The sun's got tired of smiling (been here all summer long)
And we're all tired denying (we sometimes get it wrong)
I know some things are timeless (they die but carry on),
'Cos I shine on regardless (of how long you've been gone)
Lucky girl, so lucky, 'cos you're free and I'm still stuck here.
One foot in the past, heart in plastercast.
Kids are on the street, and afternoon TV.
It's the little things it hurts remembering.
The days are getting shorter (as the cold keeps coming closer)
My heart stopped getting sore (when the heartache froze it over)
But leaves don't just stop falling (even frozen to the trees),
And no-one hides from sorrow (let your sorrow breathe)
Lucky girl, so lucky, 'cos you're free and I'm still stuck here.
One foot in the past, heart in plastercast.
Kids are on the street, and afternoon TV.
