John Lawrie & The Welcome Strangers - Park Bench

I used to think this park bench was a tombstone
So I wasn’t alone
Looking out to sea
There’s someone beneath my feet
But now I'll spend my days
Between the names of the dead and the dying
And I’m not quite sure which I am
Ain’t got long before I’ve got to
Meet the maker of this whole thing
And give my atoms back again
And I need to run away
Where my face has no name
But I can’t wait forever
With your hand in mine
I know we’ll be alright
And we’ll drive on ‘til dawn
‘Til there’s no more red lights
‘Til there’s no more red lights
‘Til there’s no more red lights
I’m terrified of doing well
Terrified they’ll ask me to do it again
But I don’t know how
I don’t know how
Can I go now?
And I’m terrified of how I love you
‘Cause I’ve felt it before and yet it’s totally new
And I don’t know how
I don’t know how
I don’t know how
With your hand in mine
I know we’ll be alright
And we’ll drive on ‘til dawn
‘Til there’s no more red lights
And I’ll keep you by my side
I know we’re gonna be alright
‘Til there’s no more red lights
‘Til there’s no more red lights
And I need to run away
To where my face knows no pain
But I can’t wait forever
No I can’t wait forever
With your hand in mine
I know we’ll be alright
And we’ll drive on ‘til dawn
‘Til there’s no more red lights
And I’ll keep you by my side
I know we’ll be alright
And we’ll drive on ‘til dawn
‘Til there’s no more red lights
