Roddy Woomble - New Frontier lyrics

We were forced to chop up the train seats And tables for the fire As the wind howled through the windows And the brown lace curtains couldn't k** the breeze Exactly fifty years ago tonight It's just a shame that there are no photographs from this time Through the attic windows The moon grows in the sky And I'm glad and happy looking For a moment that could capture my heart This house will be a ruin before you know it No matter how many times you wipe that table There is no escape, you'd be a fool to believe it It's just too bad you didn't take more photographs It's with a mix of disappointment and surprise You comb your black hair over your eyes As I throw back to another time But I'm just happy looking for your eyes You know that I'm just happy looking for your eyes I'll let the colour that they set off in my heart Act as a tie Act as a tie
