Lyrics The Proclaimers

The Proclaimers

One More Down

Spent the morning - unaware

Spent the daytime - didn't care

Spent the evening - drawing breath

Spent the nighttime - fearing death

One more down some more to go

Then I'll know or I won't know

If all the songs I hear you sing

Are everything or anything

Saw a picture I didn't know

of a football game played 50 years ago

You see the jersey's being worn so proud

But look behind them, look up at the crowd

A sea of heads pointing right up to the sky

Some of them are still with us and some of them have died

I think the one's who've left are still with us aswell

Cause I can hear them when the voices start to swell

One more down some more to go

Then I'll know or I won't know

If all the songs I hear you sing

Are everything or anything

Well I hear you, I don't see you

Yes I hear you but I don't see you

But it won't be long till I'm gone

And then I'll know if my ears or eyes are wrong

Spent the morning - unaware

Spend the daytime - didn't care

Spent the evening - drawing breath

Spent the nighttime - fearing death

One more down some more to go

Then I'll know or I won't know

If all the songs I hear you sing

Are everything or anything

One more down some more to go

Then I'll know or I won't know

If all the songs I hear you sing

Are everything or anything
