Dust Yourself Down

Number Ten

Friday, May 7th, 2004

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Now it has all ended
And it left me ragged
Eack kick was for something
But now they fade away
Back into a world of minor detail.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 The final flurry was a matter of pride
To prove a point to everyone
How glad I was that they did
For one win made all the difference
To make me feel comfortable.

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 And to think I last saw them
Looking exhausted and broken
Spread across a pitch
In an unfamiliar colour
With expressions of failure.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 The unknown lies ahead
New destinations appearing
Another series of battles
I hope we can stand up to
Better than before.

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 A different team
From those that started
Many left and new faces
Arrived expecting to hit
The ground running.

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 A change for the good
With more wins next to our name
It is a simple wish but
Difficult to achieve
Where do we go now?
