about
No album would be complete without a song about a group of old men. This is mine. We met them in a restaurant in Sheffield.
lyrics
Friends since the war are worth fighting for
And so are the memories
We keep them alive, say goodbye to our wives
Just for the evening
A table for four
Who could ask for more
We’ve said goodbye with tears in our eyes
To those who have fallen
Time marches on, and though they are gone
They’re not forgotten
Food and friendship on a Thursday night
Yeah, we put the world to rights
Aching joints and fading sight
They don’t mean a thing tonight
Faces old but eyes still bright
Nothing’s ever black and white
I see things in a different light
The world’s a different place on Thursday night
Roll back the years, have a few beers
Flirt with the waitress
Friendship remains, it stays the same
Through all of life’s changes
Bridge:
They say we live our lives learning to be older
Well I don’t know if that’s true, but I could learn something from you
And so are the memories
We keep them alive, say goodbye to our wives
Just for the evening
A table for four
Who could ask for more
We’ve said goodbye with tears in our eyes
To those who have fallen
Time marches on, and though they are gone
They’re not forgotten
Food and friendship on a Thursday night
Yeah, we put the world to rights
Aching joints and fading sight
They don’t mean a thing tonight
Faces old but eyes still bright
Nothing’s ever black and white
I see things in a different light
The world’s a different place on Thursday night
Roll back the years, have a few beers
Flirt with the waitress
Friendship remains, it stays the same
Through all of life’s changes
Bridge:
They say we live our lives learning to be older
Well I don’t know if that’s true, but I could learn something from you
