Letra de To Absent Friends - Frank Turner

Lunchtime Friday, leave work early
Rushing through the suburbs to the station to catch the train
Heading up to town to Dave�s to get my glad rags on
Because lately I�ve been running down, little things catching up
Excuses stretched thin and it�s hard not giving up
Tonight we�re going to get it right, we�re going to have us a good one

And the roll call is missing a name
Since you left things haven�t been the same
But I don�t blame you, there was nothing here to make you stay
But I remember the way that you�d light up a room when you walk in,
The way that you�d lead a crowd when you sing
Jamie, this one is for you.

Pre-club beers at Dan�s before we hit the road
Nicely warmed up, pleasantly half-loaded
Ready for a night on fire, we�re going to get out the big guns
And I run down the numbers, scan through the faces
Run through the plans, scout out the places
I�m electrified, surrounded, but still missing something or someone

I�m wide awake in the cityscape

You did your time out on the road
One day you stayed away for good
You found a home down by the shore
A place to hang your hat and more
You sent me postcards to tell me of
Slowing down and finding love
The thrill has gone from the city life
I�m not far behind

So you can strike my name from the roll call,
When night falls I�m leaving
There is nothing here to make me stay
When I get to the coast I will send back a postcard
To tell all my old friends all about my new start
Jamie I will see you soon.
