Roll Again - Bittersweet

Well, there’s no need to feel guilty

I knew the outcome before this time

I should have listened to my friends

But my friends are up for desertion

Didn’t see my point of view

Disappeared when i sent the distress call

And floundered in the swell

Just one thing left to do…

Time stands still in places, love moves on in hearts

Did you see the look on their faces?

When they realise it’s back to the start

Roll again

So I left the smoke on an eight-car

With three voices in my head

Past another one pound ghost town

With high hopes already dead

Till those friends who fell by the wayside

Remind me they didn’t fall, they slipped

And with outstretched hands they grabbed me

And hauled me from the ditch

And there’s still one thing left to do…

Time stands still in places, love moves on in hearts

Did you see the look on their faces?

When they realise it’s back to the start

Roll again

Did you find it live and dangerous

Or did live and dangerous find you?

Now you look to the shore, no-one's waiting anymore

And your nows become the then that they all see

Time stands still in places, love moves on in hearts

Did you see the look on their faces?

When they realise it’s back to the start

Roll again

In the People’s Café - roll again

On the Mendip Hills — roll again

On a rooftop at the marshes — roll again

Above the watermill — roll again
