Lyrics Death in the Afternoon - Midge Ure

Death in the Afternoon

We tuned the dial, we heard the news and laughed
We don’t know why, we drank the wine and spoke of times when you
Of days gone by, we flick through photographs we had
Somehow, it made us sad remembering good times we used to have
It made us cry
Ooh, I remember
Death in the afternoon
A silence fell about the room
With hush and heavy calm, the lovers and the friends all felt the same
It kept us warm, we raised a glass and drank to times we had
But see no more, the memory of the past that haunts us still
And it remain
Ooh, I remember
Death in the afternoon
Ooh, I remember
Death in the afternoon
We tuned the dial, we heard the news and laughed
We don’t know why, we drank the wine and spoke of times when you
Of days gone by
We tuned the dial, we heard the news and laughed
We don’t know why, we drank the wine and spoke of times when you
Of days gone by
We tuned the dial, we heard the news and laughed
We don’t know why, we drank the wine and spoke of times when you
Of days gone by
