Lyrics Hope the Good Things Never Die - Northcote

Hope the Good Things Never Die

There’s a yellow sky out tonight
Hanging over our strange new town
Well try not to take it in a bad way
If life ever gets you down
From your first kiss, to your first fight
Oh the first time you ran for your life
Now you’re boasting and bragging
You’ll be back again
And nothing will be out of line
This feeling, it won’t last forever
Oh you got to let it roll on by
When you lose so often, you don’t feel anything at all
I hope the good things, they never die
She said to me, «Ocean Eyes
The road seems more narrow than it is wide
The whole God damn world is stacking up all against me
Don’t know who it is that I should be»
«Maybe it’s time to ring the final bell
Roll the dice, come out of my shell
I’ve been praying and praying
The whole thing’s gone to hell
Well maybe it’s just as well»
I never learned to think 'til I left my feet
I need help getting out of here tonight
There’s no need to be afraid
Gotta lay it on the line
Even the lose ends keep a little pride
When you lose so often, you don’t feel anything at all
I hope the good things, they never die
