These Miles - Dear Hawarden lyrics

Crispy blazer, trouser creases Careful, caring and clean shaven with a dash of aftershave All the boardgames you could win Before I got tall enough to shake your hand Make me laugh, once again Arguably we were always swimming against the tide Tom and Jerry in the afternoon Broke too soon and I'll never tell you All I wanted was for you to better Every illness they could throw at you I can't remember what I wore Miss your crosswords on my arrival Miss you picking berries in photos in my diary Everything I missed when you weren't Relive everything I dreamed and tell me I'm mad To miss something I never saw Saw you fall to the lounge room floor If only I'd known to make you laugh All I wanted was for you to better Every illness they could throw at you 20 years too late and you'd say you missed something But really, I missed the best part of you Tell me I can't long for this Tell me I've held onto this It's all interwoven with your humble relief The only section that never came around for me To photosynethesise And reproduce your swell
