I know that you’re out there Born ready, but on the decline To keep you from my thoughts When we first broke the line Do you remember like I remember? Lost pursuits of excellence The glory of the crowd Lives of imperialists Leave me with aching wrists So no wonder you frown When you’re two world wars down So when the dark times come Well I will sing you a good time song I’m pretending that it’s ending But it kills me to act so strong Just to gaze in your eyes Makes all the difference to me. Just be ready my angel Be ready when I call I’ve been re reading letters They were moving warm but bitter And I cried right through them all Oooh ooooh The days go so slow Ooooh oooh We’ll never get to heaven with the artillery in tow So when the dark times come It might warm your heart to know That I went to the crossroads But the devil never showed They can stick their war, I’m leaving now Makes all the difference to me I’m hoping if you know where I am Send your heart in a telegram I’m praying that you know where I am Be upstairs ready my angel Be ready when I call And then my angel I’ll be ready too And I will catch you when you fall Do you remember like I remember All the dirty things you said? Do you remember like I remember Or was it all in my head? So when the dark times come Well I will song you a good time song I’m pretending that it’s ending But it kills me to act so strong To gaze in your eyes Makes all the difference to me So Who’s got the clap Who’s got the clap Give yourself a clap now
