Lyrics The Hoosiers

The Hoosiers

Somewhere In The Distance

You’ve got a lot of nerve

To try and bring me down

Maybe you haven’t heard

That’s not the way we run this town

Cos when the times are tough we turn them round

We’ve got a lot to lose

The stakes are staggering

But we don’t choose to use

The brakes that only ground us down

No, when the times are tough we’ll turn them round

Cling onto that sweet, sweet hope

Somewhere in the distance

You know that there must be somebody

Somewhere in the distance

How dare you be so bold

Despite the love we found

To let your blood run cold

In the heat of battle we built this town

Cos when the times are tough we’ll turn them round

So make hay while the sun shines on your face

Cos you’re young, but only once

It’s OK, life won’t stop if you make mistakes

Cos your luck is gonna change

Cling onto that sweet, sweet hope

Somewhere in the distance

Hang onto that sweet, sweet hope

That somewhere in the distance

You know that there must be somebody

Somebody for you

Somewhere in the distance

Cos when the times are tough we turn them round

Somewhere in the distance

(Cos when the times are tough we turn them round)

You know that there must be somebody

Somebody for you

Cling onto that sweet, sweet hope

Somewhere in the distance

Cling onto that sweet, sweet hope

That somewhere in the distance

You know that there must be somebody

You know that there must be somebody

You know that there must be somebody

They’re just out of view

Somewhere in the distance
