The Living

Oh Kate the weather's good

The summer's come

What could you do here?

Should we pursue everything?

Insist on joy?

Hound out the humdrum?

Oh Kate we're the lucky ones

The first of them

That burst into that sea

We're not running scared

Locked up

Or frightened for what will be

Ooh wah wah

Wah wah ooh

Can we be the precious

The jewels

The longed for?

Are we the forgiven

The bright stars of the morning, the living?

So Kate we never did

The things we said

The promises we made

Oh Kate can we burn out

Fade away gloriously instead?

Ooh wah wah

Wah wah ooh

Can we be the precious

The jewels

The longed for?

Are we the forgiven

The bright stars of the morning, the shining?

So are we everything

We believed in

To the finish

From the beginning?

The Living?

The Living?

The living the living the living the living the living
