Fifteen Years Lyrics

I never was a violent man
Said the man in the bar with his head in his hands
Trying his best to understand the cause of his dismay
But years of gin have broken him
And left him cold where he fitted in
It's too late to turn around and find another way
And the laughs in the late night lock-in
Have Faded away when he gets in
And the girl from fifteen years ago
Has packed and gone away

That's never be what it used to be
What happened to all that energy
You took too many liberties, and I'm tired of being afraid
So after the fight she took flight
Hiding swollen eyes and a wounded pride
The best years of her life denied, sold for liquid shares
And the laughs in the late night lock-in
Have Faded away when he gets in
And the girl from fifteen years ago
Has packed and gone away

The victims of there world, are advertised on posters
just a beach and a pretty girl, if you just drink this potion
It's another week 'til his cheque comes through
He's got a fiver left to spend on food
But the doors of the bar are open, and he breaks another rule
well he sits on the stool that bears his name
His got a favorite glass but its called the same
he's never kept waiting, 'cos he pays the landlord's wage
All the laughs in the late night lock-in
Have Faded away when he gets in
And the girl from fifteen years ago
Has packed and gone away

All the laughs in the late night lock-in
Have Faded away when he gets in
And the girl from fifteen years ago
Has packed and gone away
