Deacon Blue - "Dignity"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRUk9R3QNqg There's a man I meet walks up our street He's a worker for the council Has been twenty years And he takes no lip of nobody And litter off the gutter Puts it in a bag And never sthinks to mutter And he packs his lunch in a sunblest bag The children call him bogie He never lets on But I know 'cause he once told me He let me know a secret about the money in his kitty He's gonna buy a dinghy Gonna call her dignity And I'll sail her up the west coast Through villages and towns I'll be on my holidays They'll be doing their rounds They'll ask me how I got her I'll say "I saved my money" They'll say isn't she pretty that ship called dignity And I'm telling this story In a faraway scene Sipping down raki And reading maynard keynes And I'm thinking about home and all that means And a place in the winter for dignity And I'll sail her up the west coast Through villages and towns I'll be on my holidays They'll be doing their rounds They'll ask me how I got her I'll say "I saved my money" They'll say isn't she pretty that ship called dignity And I'm thinking about home And I'm thinking about faith And I'm thinking about work And I'm thinking how good it would be To be here some day DEACON BLUE - Dignity (Original Version) (1987) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRUk9R3QNqg

Deacon Blue - "Wages Day"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuVhm8qT8RQ There we stood and there we left Outside the flashing neon sign With the smell of cheap cigars And the hope of sweet perfume And his heart it was reeling With the thrill of it all All to do and only hours He said all this is all yours You can have it all You can take it all away From where we left off Living it all your way If you'll stand in my shoes If you'll do what I do On wages day On wages day And the cap from Disneyland That his cousin she brought back Stays open in his hand From one week to another And this long narrow land Is full of possibility All to do and only hours He said all this is all yours You can have it all You can take it all away From where we left off Living it all your way If you'll stand in my shoes If you'll do what I do On wages day On wages day Read more: Deacon Blue - Wages Day Lyrics | MetroLyrics

Deacon Blue - "Gone"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f87zg_bnk6w Were you there at the beginning, Pacing the roads, Walking the streets Or in the shadows of the summer, Close by, but never seen Were you the figure in the window, Seen from some speeding train. Or accidentally in a photograph, Of a half forgotten scene Did I see you from the park, Round the corner of the bridge Were you a swimmer or just a rock, Clasped in a moment from the beach If I never see you one more time, I know you’re in all my dreams It would be everything, Just to see you back again But you’re gone You’re gone Everybody’s lost, Not just the ones you know. We are a lot of travelers, All trying to get home. Did I see you from the platform? Slowly pulling out again, Did I pass you on the road, Almost forgotten everyone If I never see you one more time, I know you’re in all my dreams It would be everything, Just to see you back again But you’re gone, But you’re gone, You’re gone You’re gone You’re gone You’re gone You’re gone You’re gone You’re gone You’re gone You’re gone If I never see you one more time, I know you’re in all my dreams It would be everything, Just to see you back again If I never see you one more time, I know you’re in all my dreams It would be everything, Just to see you back again But you’re gone, You’re gone You’re gone You’re gone
