[00:19.87]Come hold me now
[00:23.37]I am not gone
[00:29.33]I would not leave you here alone
[00:34.24]In this dead calm beneath the waves
[00:41.75]I can still hear those lost boys calling
[00:49.04]You could not speak
[00:52.52]You were afraid
[00:57.28]To take the risk of being left again
[01:03.22]And so you tipped your hat and waved and then
[01:11.13]You turned back up the gangway of that steel tomb again
[01:18.39]And in Mott street in July
[01:25.54]When I hear those seabirds cry
[01:32.68]I hold the child
[01:36.32]The child in the man
[01:40.23]The child that we leave behind
[02:21.59]And in Mott street in July
[02:28.79]When I hear the seabirds cry
[02:36.01]I hold the child
[02:39.77]The child in the man
[02:43.34]The child that we leave behind
[02:55.30]The spotlight fades
[02:58.99]The boys disband
[03:03.05]The final notes lie mute upon the sand
[03:09.53]And in the silence of the grave
[03:16.72]I can still hear those lost boys calling
[03:24.27]We left them there
[03:27.66]When they were young
[03:32.16]The men were gone until the west was won
[03:38.36]And now there's nothing left but time to kill
[03:46.38]You never took us fishing dad and now you never will
[03:53.54]And in Mott street in July
[04:00.71]When I hear the seabirds cry
[04:07.94]I hold the child
[04:11.78]The child in the man
[04:15.39]The child that we leave behind
[04:28.86].......
