Whitewash by Gary Fitzpatrick
From the album Judas Steer by The Great Western Squares.
Turn the clock back, start anew,
Paint a whitewash on the past.
Take a step back, change the view,
Tie your colours to the mast.
And I think I know just what you mean to me
But it s taken far to long for me to see
For I couldn t tell the forest from the trees
And I think I know just what you mean to me.
Comprehension came too late
Dream of pleasures that are lost
Hesitation, count the cost
Add them all to bear this cross
And I think i know just what you mean to me
But it s taken far to long for me to see
For I couldn t tell the forest from the trees
And I think I know just what you mean to me.
Every moment of every day
Seems to take so very long
Every second your away
Drags like an eternity
Tussles when your gone.
Turn the clock back, change the date
Join the circle don t be late
No solution , no escape
Add them all to hesitate
And I think i know just what you mean to me
But it s taken far to long for me to see
For I couldn t tell the forest from the trees
And I think I know just what you mean to me.
