Nostalgia - The Long Blondes

It was the shock of the new

That kept the latest two

At the top of the charts all summer

It must have been something like 11 weeks

That we spent up there

But still…

That was then and this is now

That was then and this is now

That was just nostalgia

I used to think I’d never cry

Or worry if I said goodbye

'Cos human beings have all

Outgrown those basic feelings anyway…

That was then and this is now

That was then and this is now

That was just nostalgia

So don’t you worry

About the pretty creatures in the street

The pretty creatures that I’d like

To eat up for breakfast

The pretty creatures in the streets

The pretty creatures that I’d like

To eat up for breakfast

That’s all in the past

I may never have a daughter

Cos I’ve far too much to tell her

And far too much to answer to

I want to move into the future

Move in to the future

Move into the future with you

And the politics of love

And who I used to dream of

That was just nostalgia

I want to move into the future

Move in to the future

Move into the future with you

And the politics of love

And who I used to dream of

That was just nostalgia
