Teenage Fanclub - The Past lyrics

rate me

Rolling through the city sprawl

On a late night train

The moon will survive us all

Waiting for a friend to call

I'm adrift again

I search for nothing at all

Modern life corrodes us all

You know that it's true

Give yourself a wake-up call

Let the past come back to rescue you

Seduced by a friendly fire

I just watch the window

Machines couldn't take me higher

Don't wanna to be a lonely liar

With a living tombstone

Your warmth fills my desire

Modern life corrodes us all

You know that it's true

Give yourself a wake-up call

Let the past come back to rescue you

I wake up to the morning star

Embraced by false phosphorescence

My dreams stay where they are

I don't know where to start

Alone and lost and guessing

Revealed by an open heart

Modern life corrodes us all

You know that it's true

Give yourself a wake-up call

You know what it'll do

Memory detains it all

Your know that it's true

Give yourself a wake-up call

Let the past come back to rescue you

The past come back to rescue you

The past come back to rescue you

The past comes back to rescue you
