Bài hát David Báo Lỗi

Well I met him outside a hostel door

He said I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours

I know you think it's shifty for a man in his fifties

To be sleeping in a hostel dorm

But I used to be a welder by trade

Used to work by the water where the ships get made

But no ship yard will take me now

My hands are too shaky now

And I've spend all my money before I get paid


And I said: David, don't you think it's strange

While you were sleeping

How the world went and changed

Looking in your eyes, yeah I think you know

That David, we lost you, lost you a long time ago


He leans his head against the hostel wall

Said I have an ex-wife that doesn't hear me

And a kid that doesn't call

And every month I'm caught short

With my fucking child support

And the court says that I'm reckless and irresponsible

Cause it was never part of the plan

To be a middle aged man

To be sat outside a hostel, shaking strangers hands

But I've drunk away my wealth

I'm a picture of bad health

And I'm a shadow of a shadow of a former self


And I said: David, don't you think it's strange

While you were walking and how the world went and changed

I hear it in your voice

I think you know

That David we lost you, lost you a long time ago


Oh well David, don't you think it's strange

For years you're in your dark room

How the world went and changed

Looking in your eyes

Yeah I think you know

That David, we lost you

Lost you a long time ago
