March of the Gherkins

It's been some time since that smile upon my face Had I sneaked previewing town It's been a while since I gave chase It's been some time since the girl from 'round my way Came and took me by the hand Been a long time since I came around I can remember when I stood on my head And walking straight across the ground Still picture their laughing faces Catch me, I'm falling into my past Catch me, the deeper, the louder the laugh I was told to grow up soon, face my consequences Being told it was high time, high time to come to my senses Climbing up to the top floor, stood the look of pleasure Such a silly aged man with an attic full of treasure Catch me, I'm falling into my past Deeper, the deeper, the louder the laugh I remember when I was ten, things were somewhat better then Time went by so easily, is this the way life's supposed to be? But looking back, I wonder why it seems to pass so quickly by Memories can make you cry, I close my eyes, my tears I try to hide I was thinking about Tamer Lane Of all the funny places I was thinking, a short time ago Catch me, I'm falling into my past Catch me, the deeper, the louder the laugh Catch me, I'm falling into my past Deeper, the deeper, the louder the laugh
