The colour didn’t fade while I was away
The colour of the grass didn’t change while I was away
Time only shows in the lines on your face
Time only shows in the lines upon your face

Now it’s all built up and there’s no more vacant space
Can’t see the sea anymore for the modern palace estates
It still hasn’t rained
And the grass is the same
Yeah it still hasn’t rained
And the grass is the same

Night time we prize
Surprise
Night time we prize
Surprise
Night time we prize
Surprise
Night time we prize
(Shouldn’t take you so long, shouldn’t take you [x2])
