The Never Latelys - All Scotland's Eyes

Meeting you on a hazy '90s weekend
Oh how the time has "flew", like those freedoms we took for granted
Someday we'll rendezvous at the Central Station signboard
And maybe you'd need me too, in the absence of something better
Much better

All Scotland's eyes watched different lives
Those Glasgow nights, the ways of a different time
There was no police state, no camera eyes
We'd walk that tightrope, we'd walk that line

Failing proved those exams were getting tougher
It's hard to believe that you had barely any sense then
Still reeling from times gone by, our lost hopes of a brighter future
But maybe we'll realise that these times are somehow better
Much better

All Scotland's eyes watched different lives
Those Glasgow nights, the ways of a different time
There was no police state, no camera eyes
We'd walk that tightrope, we'd walk that line

Glen Coe nights, folk bands and the campfire light
Gillespie's stout, with Irn Bru for the morning after
Just like those Tennent's girls, a moment in time to savour
But our lives still go on, there's so much left to discover

All Scotland's eyes watched different lives
Those Glasgow nights, the ways of a different time
There was no police state, no camera eyes
We'd walk that tightrope, we'd walk that line

All Scotland's eyes watched different lives
Those Glasgow nights, the ways of a different time
There was no police state, no camera eyes
We'd walk that tightrope, we'd walk that line
