When the seagulls sit on the goal post
And the weathers cold
You look so old when you smoke
And then at dark
Our life warms up
And rings of smoke start dancing, dancing

Oh oh oh oh
The past is our only mistake
Oh oh oh oh
So dance now before its too late

So you drink something to forget about your mum
And theres a need to look older
Cos she treats us this young
But through her guidance
Well be all older and done

Then you can start dancing, dancing

Oh oh oh oh
The past is our only mistake
Oh oh oh oh
So dance now before its too late

Well you walk me down to the hall
Youre cart-wheeling too fast
And its making me fall
But my legs are the chains to the floor
Now that youve stopped me dancing, dancing

Oh oh oh oh
The past is our only mistake
Oh you wait for me to say no, no
I can live mine its yours that I hate
