One For The Road Lyrics

Ocean Colour Scene One For The Road

No I never knew you
We both went to different schools
Me so sacred of the rules
You chasing all the girls
Now it seems to me
We never grew up
We just got ourselves free
Inventing what we could be
To buy all their curls
Get up and dance - Get up and smile
Get up and drink to the days
That who are gone in the shortest while
She was just eighteen she collapsed
And they took her away
She didn't make it for more than an hour
Then she was gone
What do you say
When someone's been taken away
That way
Before they've had a day
To fly in the sun
