The times might have changed   But it's a quarter to nine   And outside the school   They're all waiting in line   Insecure in themselves   They want to fall for someone   But if they get what they want   Then the want won't be gone   And I hope their babies are brighter than them      The tune might have changed   But this tune is mine   I got what I wanted   But I hadn't the time   If you invest in change   Interest is great   My wonderful girl   Was not gonna wait   And she's gone like rain on a river      She's gone       Whilst craving success   I carved up my time   Between falling in love   And out of my mind   Searching and hungry   But greedy and blind   To shipwreck yourself   Is a waste not a crime   And I left my love on the airport bus      Shadows of sun    Waves on the moon    The rings of a tree    The promise of soon    The bell of a church    The factory board    Loved like a king    Left like a fool    And she's gone like rain on a river       She's gone       It's stuff we always wear    What's a question with no answer    The ones that hold you down    But words I'm never going to hear       The times might have changed   But it's a quarter to nine   And outside the school   They're all waiting in line   The bell of a church   The factory board   Loved like a king   Left like a fool   And she's gone like rain on a river      She's gone...
