The Phoenix Foundation - 40 Years lyrics

rate me

I'm your man from December<br />

I only wish I could remember<br />

All the names of the people<br />

And all the names of the streets<br />

And all the birds in my books about birds<br />

And all the words in my dictionary<br />

<br />

I'm your man from December<br />

I only wish I could remember<br />

All the lights of the cars in the streets<br />

As they blind me to the spot and then knock me off my feet<br />

And I'm feeling this stagnation but it's just a fabrication<br />

Born out of complications from my primary vocation<br />

<br />

40 years x4<br />

<br />

I'm your man<br />

So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on<br />

And get over here<br />

I'm your man from December<br />

I only wish I could remember<br />

All the names of the freaks and the fakes<br />

And all the names of the creeks and the lakes<br />

And all the birds in my books about birds<br />

And all the words I ever heard<br />

I ever heard in my head, oh my<br />

<br />

40 Years x7<br />

Of the sound ringing in my ears, in my ears
