Belle And Sebastian - The Loneliness Of A Middle Distance Runner Lyrics
i'll take a second of the day to think about the thingsthat we havedone this yearthe dog lies down, the pouring raini'm underneath the smokers' railway arch againthe future's looking colourfulit's the colour of blood, chaos and corruption of ahappy soula happy soul willride in the fieldtill the rain dies downthe railway ticket states a destinationbut it doesn't mean that we will showthere's a fork up on the linewe paid the guard to switch the sign, and off we gothe future's looking wonderfulit's the wonder of a businessman's conspiracy tosell your waresand no one caresoh you care, i knowyou care, i knowi forgot for a whileon a sulky afternoon spent in disputeyou'll give youself a headache boyso i take revenge in stories and in dreaming of the time whenwe're on stage"have you seen The Lonliness Of A Middle Distance Runner?"when he stops the race and looks aroundi left the stage"you've seen it now"i walk to the stationi wish you follow me tonight
