Squeeze - Hope Fell Down lyrics

(difford/tilbrook) You're banging your drum You blow your own trumpet Your ship came in And your fanfare sunk it The tide has turned, our love's gone forever I stand on the shore As it floats down the river I had such hopes I had such visions planned The frames were shot But now our future's canned I had my hopes so high They fell right down I'm banging my head You watch without malice (you watch with no interest at all) I bet all your friends Compare this to (i might as well talk to a brick wall) So under the arm i feel the cold shoulder So i'll once again Have to play the wild rover Do i need all this pressure Do i bury my temper
