Miserable Strangers

[00:51.65] I'm done with being brave
[00:54.26] And, oh, how we slaved to pave our way
[01:00.52] And only to be dropped upon this quay
[01:05.09] And only to be press-ganged overseas
[01:15.84] Is this the end of the beginning or the beginning of the end?
[01:22.65] And these miserable strangers will be the making of our friends
[01:29.44] They've been dropped upon this quay
[01:34.18] Just the same as you and me
[01:42.03] With each step forward, there are two looks back
[01:47.32] Are you so bewildered inside?
[01:51.84] But you know we'll have the new life that we talked of loud and proud
[01:57.60] Hack them high and hold them dear
[02:07.18] For we'll soon forget these faces in the crowd, blurred by our tears
[02:13.27] And yet, we'll miss them year after year
[02:16.82] So let's pull ourselves together like the others
[02:21.83] We'll throw our hats into the air
[02:24.52] And try to raise a hearty cheer
[02:30.06]
[03:06.21] And at the back of my mind, and I was always hoping I might just get back
[03:19.39] At the back of my mind, and I was always hoping I might just get back
[03:32.21] Always hoped (at the back of my mind and I was always hoping I might just get back)
[03:32.23] At the back of my mind, I was always hoping I might just get back
[03:44.97] At the back of my mind, I was always hoping I might just get back
[04:10.75] At the back of my mind (always hoping that I might just get back)
[04:24.02] At the back of my mind (always hoping that I might just get back)
[04:40.62]
