When I was just 16 And drinking was a novelty Three trebles down on a cold Tuesday night Clock struck 11.05 And I knew it was time To bus it back to my address Behind me I would hear the old footsteps See that worn out coat and dark dishevelled hair When I was 65 Just catching up with John and Miles I'd make my way home for the night Just 10 yards in front of me A young girl I'd see Just trying to walk in a straight line She'd turn her head to look behind I'd look at her as if to say it's alright Those words we'd never speak In this oh so simple Routine We'd walk 10 yards apart down that street And in the glow of the moonlight For the very first time I'd (He'd) watch her (me) in safe, for the night When I was 21 Back in from work I'd come I had started singing around town Still I'd look behind See those glasses on his eyes The same ones I saw all those years ago There wasn't a week had gone His watchful shadow there all along When I was 70 Out to Percy street, I'd been I was going on home to my bed See that young girl in pitch black With guitar upon her back Replaced alcohol with responsibility Now her jeans have rips in the knees But that's the fashion now you see Those words we'd never speak In this oh so simple Routine We'd walk 10 yards apart down that street And in the glow of the moonlight Two hundred and sixtieth time I'd (He'd) watch her (me) in safe, for the night She'd turn 22, 23, 24 each week by routine I'd watch her safe into her door Another year would pass now she must be 25 I'd see her pack her bags and say all of her goodbyes Those words we'd never speak In this oh so simple Routine We'd walk 10 yards apart down that street And in the glow of the moonlight For the very last time I'd (He'd) watch her (me) in safe, for the night
