Marc Almond - A Love Outgrown lyrics

Your rating:

                     

 When I was seventeen

I was chasing after dreams

In southport

I had to get away

Or end up in a nursing home alone

When I was seventeen

I had a special love

And southport

Didn't seem a bad place after all



On the promenade

The carnival facade is peeling

And the floral clock

Has stopped a moment caught in time

Such a sad decay

Wellit's something like the way I'm feeling

For such a dream so big

Southport seemed a little bit too small



And I was still naive

I really did believe in magic

Thought I had found a love

And treasured it above all else

But then I looked beyond

I saw another life was waiting

I was chasing after dreams

I had to find them by myself



I hope you understand

Such a love could never be

The sea has turned my soul

And it aches to be free

I will always think

Of southport at the fair

Summer on the beach

The fun that we had there



With southport in my mind

But las vegas in my heart

I set out to search for the stars

But every dream I dream

Follows where you've been

And it's tearing my heart apart



When I was seventeen

I left to find my dream

From southport

January came

I blame myself for out goodbyes

Nothing is so sad

As the sea side out of season

And nothing is so sad

As you and i



When I was seventeen

I was chasing after dreams

In southport

I had to get away

Or end up in a nursing home alone

And now it seems I'd never been

A boy of seventeen

In southport

It didn't last

A lifetime passed

A love outgrown



Was it all a dream

Or was it all for real

I'm standing on the pier

I'm trying not to feel

The tears are in my eyes

Your face is in the sand

I'm trying to look down

I'm reaching out my hand

I'm falling to the wind

I'm waiting for the sea

But the sea is never in

It's never in for me

In southport

(it's never in for me)

(repeat and fade)
