Last Year’s Man Songtext
von Doves

So now is the time
To take my stand
Just for once
I try to catch this time
In my hands
But it slips through
It slips through like sand

Nothing is still
Yet nothing remains
Of last year′s
Last year's men
Where did they go?

Your family was small
You watched them grow
But time went so fast
When you want them to stay
To stay the same


Yet nothing remains
And no one who stays the same
And no one′s to blame

But I know and I know and I know and I know it's a game
This game we play
I'm trying to get through the day
I feel no shame
I feel no shame
Last year′s men

And I know and I know and I know and I know it′s a game
This game we play
I'm trying to get through these days
And I know and I know and I know and I know and
I know and I know and I know it′s a cruel game
This game we play

Last year's men
Did the best we can
Last year′s men
