2 This Must Be The Place I Waited Years To Leave lyrics

Each morning after Sunblest
Feel the benefit, mental arithmetic
I waited by the staffroom
In time for benediction
Living a law just short of delusion
When we fall in love there`s confusion
This must be the place I waited years to leave

To our voices nobody`s listening
We shiver in the rain by the touchline
Then a coach ride to the station
`My lord, the carriage awaiteth!`
Living a law just short of delusion
When we fall in love there`s confusion
This must be the place I waited years to leave
This must be the place I waited years to leave
And how
How long?

I`m listening to the words I thought I`d never hear again
A litany of saints and other ordinary men
Kneeling on the parquet
Whatever has gone wrong?
The fear and feeling hopelessness
I don`t want to belong

I dreamt I was back in uniform
And a candidate for examination
History, someone had blundered
And a voice rapped `knuckle under!`
Living a law just short of delusion
When we fall in love there`s confusion
This must be the place I waited years to leave
This must be the place I waited years to leave
And how
And how
How long
