lirik lagu jez lowe and the bad pennies – tenterhooks
you get so you wonder where the years are going
things left behind you just fade away
bad news has the wings good news must dream of growing
living takes a lifetime, dying takes a day
up in the highest trees, across the widest ditches
he was always the bravest and best
and in the back of the class he’d have us all in stitches
you never knew what he’d do next
[chorus]
he had us all on tenterhooks
from one day to another
and i’ll be thinking tenterhooks
from now until forever
when i was a young boy and knew no better
he’d play the romeo, i’d play the fool
if he found somebody game, then he would let her
make all the running, and he’d make all the rules
in those days of just a cold grey grope against a pre~fab wall
a drizzle of kisses and go
he’d talk of touches and tongues to promise that’s not all
next time, how far will it go?
[chorus]
he’d have us all on tenterhooks
from one day to another
and i’ll be thinking tenterhooks
from now until forever
when i heard his name again, it came in laughter
it came in summertime, but never in tears
i could see him swinging brave from rope and rafter
while we stayed far below, knowing we’d never dare
they say there was a kiss on a tissue where some lipstick had dried
by a note that he shouldn’t’ve read
and a stain on another from the tears he cried
the first and the last he ever shed
[chorus]
he left them all on tenterhooks
from one day to another
and i’ll be thinking tenterhooks
from now until forever
i last saw him standing from a passing car
and i called as he was turning away
in my dreams he answers that he’s never far
and he’ll be back at my door someday
[chorus]
he left us all on tenterhooks
from now until forever
and i’ll be thinking tenterhooks
from one day to another
