Andy Songtext
von The Front Lawn

Let′s take a walk along the beach before the tide comes in
You sure missed one hell of a party last night
I was just disappointed
But the rest of the family won't even mention your name
Yeah, I know you didn′t mean to let me down last night

Andy, don't keep your distance from me
Andy, don't keep your distance from me

So you didn′t make it back in time for the birthday boy
I know things can′t stay the same year after year
Just take a look at this beach now
There isn't much left of the place we knew when we were kids
When we used to go diving from the rocks over there

Andy, don′t keep your distance from me
Andy, don't keep your distance


What do you say we go up north here?
Try to catch the sailing races
Can you believe this place?
Well, can you?
They′re making money out of money
They're making buildings out of glass
Their kids look like they stepped out of fashion magazines
And none of it′s going to last
Man gets angry
What can you do?
Don't know why I'm telling all this to you
On Takapuna Beach
On Takapuna Beach
On Takapuna Beach

On Takapuna Beach I can still see you
And I can let myself pretend that you′re still around
I turned 28 last night
If you were still alive, you′d be just short of 33
If only you could see your hometown now

Andy, don't keep your distance from me
Andy, don′t keep your distance from me
