Lyrics The Rifles – History

Won’t you please stop telling me
I know you’re not so blind to see
That everything that was correct
Is wrong and I know that it ain’t just me

No form of apologies
Would ever start to stitch the seam
Now it ain’t that hard to see
That we were only cutting teeth dear
Would only make a start in a new decline
A long way to go to get no where
But you can’t put a price on a piece of mind
If I gave my heart a convincing listen
I’d be given me a warning sign so
For the last time, drop me a lifeline

Days alone they roll into a week
I can’t get away when you fall down at my feet
And I’m happy with sweet memories
So why would I wanna go and make more history

So don’t you say that it’s gonna be
Another chance that we won’t repeat
Did you think I would turn around
Now you know that I know what a fool would believe
When given half a chance to be near you
Would only male a start in a new decline
And if I gave my heart a convincing listen
I’d be giving me a one way sign ‘so’

All the time that you put me on the back foot
Why would I wanna go and make more history
