lyrics

You know you're a hard act to follow.
You've left a gap that I don't know how to fill.
Past months have been hard to swallow.
I missed you then, I miss you still.

I hope you find what you're looking for.
...like that snake who shed it's skin and moved along.
Well the door is always open if you're ever back in town.
No questions asked - right or wrong.

I know this winter's been a hard one for both of us.
The decision's made - there's nothing more to say.
Been through so many long nights, I've just lost count,
Now we're looking for the longest day.

So now you've got your new town and your new friends.
You've got no history to get in your way.
And I hear that the weather has been a little kinder
And if that's what you want - what can I say.
