Hope the Good Things Never Die - Northcote

There’s a yellow sky out tonight

Hanging over our strange new town

Well try not to take it in a bad way

If life ever gets you down

From your first kiss, to your first fight

Oh the first time you ran for your life

Now you’re boasting and bragging

You’ll be back again

And nothing will be out of line

This feeling, it won’t last forever

Oh you got to let it roll on by

When you lose so often, you don’t feel anything at all

I hope the good things, they never die

She said to me, «Ocean Eyes

The road seems more narrow than it is wide

The whole God damn world is stacking up all against me

Don’t know who it is that I should be»

«Maybe it’s time to ring the final bell

Roll the dice, come out of my shell

I’ve been praying and praying

The whole thing’s gone to hell

Well maybe it’s just as well»

I never learned to think 'til I left my feet

I need help getting out of here tonight

There’s no need to be afraid

Gotta lay it on the line

Even the lose ends keep a little pride

When you lose so often, you don’t feel anything at all

I hope the good things, they never die
