Heydays

Heydays are passing
Your house has been rented
Several times over
By prettier girls

Weekends and summers
Bands that you loved
Were just haircuts and jackets
Back then that was enough

Your days are invested
The band has been signed
You've been there before
Perhaps this is the time

Girlfriends are leaving
New girls arrive
You open the circle
To be blinded by light

Uncertain the future
Nostalgic the past
Unable to recognize
Moments that pass

Oh, heydays are passing
Friendless and thin
From back doors of cafes
Hid by the din

But don't hold a candle
Don't carry a torch
Those are for castles
And you are long from their court

But lift up a bottle
And tip back a glass
Some years from tomorrow
With your gut you'll look back
