PORTISHEAD LYRICS



"Half Day Closing"


In the days, the golden days

When everybody knew what they wanted

It ain't here today



Through the times of lasting love

When parents talked of things tried and tested

It don't feel the same



Dreams and belief have gone

Time, life itself goes on



Far beyond the shrinking skies

Where money talks and leaves us hypnotised

It don't pave the way



Underneath the fading sun

The silent sum of a businessman

Has left us choking



Dreams and belief have gone

Time, life itself goes on



In the days, the golden days

When everybody know what they wanted

It ain't here today



Dreams and belief have gone

Time, life itself goes on
