afterthought

by brendan philip mccusker

 

verse

golden glow with a heart under lock and key

riding in on a gentle breeze

touch-and-go from the start of the fantasy

slowly drifting further out to sea

 

pre-chorus

pull the mirror off the wall

tunnel vision blurring lines that you don’t recall

but hold your head high cause you know

there’s always someone soft to break the fall

 

chorus

so thanks a lot

does the garden of forget-me-not

hold that love you long forgot

go and take the shot

if you make it all up on the spot

you can save yourself

from an afterthought

 

verse

endless summer of a wolf howling at the moon

living free inside a sunshine daydream

undercover upper crust crumbled out of tune

careless dancing on a balance beam

pre-chorus

pull the mirror off the wall

tunnel vision blurring lines that you don’t recall

but hold your head high cause you know

there’s always someone soft to break the fall

chorus

so thanks a lot

does the garden of forget-me-not

hold that love you long forgot

go and take the shot

if you make it all up on the spot

you can save yourself

from an afterthought
