Jeff Lang – Some Memories Never Die lyrics

Double-decker number nine
Let out a sound all wound up like a siren
And I felt her shudder next to me
Remembering the air-raids in the night
The last fifty years just shot right by

Some memories never die

Like a curl of smoke, the notes
Bounced off the Apollo theatre walls
And all the words fell to the floor
As two thousand mouths all sighed
The fingers stick out, the cabs roll by

Some memories never die

Trade thoughts of guilt for shame
A simple word's not that hard to say...?

You act like an even plane
Is to bleach everything in your sight
(does your mother have to wonder
Where you were stolen in the night?)
Your silence will haunt you where you lie

Some memories never die
