some people get by with a little understanding, some people get by with a whole lot more..

think back to when Gary Numan wrote and recorded 'Cars' in 1979 and if we don't think we've lost something we're crazy...but if we think it's coming back anytime soon then we are complete fools... can you still recall in the juke box hall when the music played and the world spun round to a brand new sound in those far off days.. in their blue suede shoes they would scream and shout as they sang the blues, let it all hang out.. rock and roll..

Story behind the song

writing with Rick is such a great thing and really dig the result with this - good to have Bruce and Rick on this together as their talent is similar and immeasurable.

Lyrics

I look from your window
As first light flickers
Some shadows that hide
Some buried in blame
And I remember
What I'd been thinking
You were the one
Who'd always call my name

And this night lingers
Surrenders to grey
No more shadows
Cast over your shame
Yet I remember
What I'd been thinking
You'd be the one
Who'd always call my name

You always, you always

You always were the one
Who called my name
Always, always
Who always stayed the same

Now I've been thinking
I've been thinking
It's now time
Time to go home

It's time, time to go
