Beautiful South A Long Day In The Field Lyrics

A Long Day In The Field Lyrics

It's been a long day in the field for us all

Catching balls and dropping balls

It's been a long life in this world

Catching hearts and dropping hearts

Like hearts were meant to bounce

Like hearts were meant to bounce

I'm sure



The wave that you just missed

Could've been the big one

The one that took you there

The sunshine fills the air



It's been a night shift of a life for us all

Gaining friends and losing friends

It's been a cleaner's sort of hours

That's why we buy our flowers

Cos when you smell of shit you love flowers



And the wind that broke your kite

Could've been the big one

To take you out of sight

Keep you snug at night



And it's hard to know just why

Why when you take shit

Should you give shit?



And the wind that broke your kite

Could've been the big one

To take you out of sight

Keep you snug at night

Keep you snug at night
